Blues News From Portsmouth - April 2012


Welcome to this months newletter.

* Review In Blues In Britain Magazine *


The March Edition of Blues In Britain featured a nice review of the most
recent Andy Broad solo gig at The Auckland Arms. I've just added a
'clipping' of it to the scrapbook section of the solo page.

The first studio session for the debut Walker Broad album went very well
with rhythm tracks being laid down for the first four tracks. Read more
about it on Sandy's blog at http://www.walkerbroad.co.uk, whilst your there
if you are reading this on an iPad you should notice that the player now
works for you as the flash based player has been replaced with a shiney new
HTML5 one.

I don't normally mention the Bullfrog directly on this list, but this one is
a bit special. Watermelon Slim is agreat american blues player, possibly
the best we've ever had at the club. If you only come to one Bulfrog this
year make it this one! Thursday 5th April @ The NBE CSA Club, Onslow Road,
Southsea. Support from Andy Broad. Tickets available online at
