Critics have called Carl Sonny Leyland one of the best vintage boogie woogie piano players in the world. His styles range from early 1900's blues, ragtime and stride piano, to 30's & 40's boogie woogie and rhythm & blues, to 50's pumping rock n roll. Carl has grown a dangerously addictive piano playing repertoire. Top it off with a voice for hollerin' the blues, and you too will be downright diggin' it.

Big Joe Louis was born in Jamaica, West Indies, and moved to the UK during the 1970s. The Blues Kings were formed 18 years ago and have taken their special kind of real down-home Chicago Blues around the world! "The best blues group ever to emanate from these shores. You must see them. They are great." Now Dig This "Perhaps the finest set I have ever heard from a UK band..." Blues & Rhythm “...one of the best British Blues bands ever.” Juke Blues “The UK’s premier Blues outfit - the most powerful and authentic sounding blues album released by a home produced band in twenty years” Blues & Rhythm
