The Revolutionaires
The Revolutionaires are influenced by 1940’s and 1950’s R&B. In particular, Louis Jordan, Little Richard, Chuck Berry and Roy Brown, but with a harder aggressive approach, synonymous with modern blues artists like Stevie Ray Vaughan and Mike Henderson which helps create their high energy sound.

Kyla Brox Band
Kyla's voice remains a stunning example of the soul singer's art: turning up the heat by degrees, lulling and charming before unleashing emotional catharsis, and blurring the distinction between pleasure and pain like the soul greats of old. Kyla is without doubt the most authentic UK blues and soul singer of her generation.
