Brilliant harmony-driven five-piece ‘folky country blues’ band, fronted
by
North West singer songwriter
Jimmy Rae
The band play a mix of original material from Jimmy’s critically acclaimed
debut album ‘DELIVERANCE’ (released 2009) plus classic covers by the likes of, Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Otis Redding, Patsy Cline, Elvis Presley,
Eddie Cochran, Bryan Adams and Bruce Springsteen. Their high-octane, Johnny Cash-inspired rendition of Blondie’s ‘Heart of Glass’ is a live favourite!
