St Harmonica's Blues Club


This Friday at St Harmonica's


Tim Penn

Support from ‘Mad Dog’ Dave Barnes

Friday January 24th
8.00 - 11.30

Super January continues this Friday 24th January when Tim Penn & The Second Line come to entertain us with some top drawer piano led blues. No one does New Orleans and Louisiana music quite like Tim Penn and the professor also makes sure he surrounds himself with the finest musicians.

Tim is a regular at Ronnie Scotts where he usually packs the place and it is always refreshing to see a true piano led evening; If you like Professor Longhair, Dr John, Allen Toussaint, James Booker, Huey Smith and The Clowns, then this is a band that you won’t want to miss. In Tim’s own words “This is the blues, but with a great big smile on its face”.

Always a very popular evening at the club, don't be late.

Support comes from the Godfather of North London Blues, ‘Mad Dog’ Dave Barnes with his slide guitar, harmonica and unrivalled vocals. Dave will play at 8.30pm followed by two sets from Tim Penn and the Second Line starting around 9.15pm.

St Harmonica’s Blues Club is a members only club and admission is FREE to card holding St Harmonica’s Blues Club Members.

We just ask for a contribution into the hat to go towards the musicians’ costs.
