WELCOME   to Bourbon Street Revival.

BSR is an eight-piece band playing a variety of Blues and Soul.  With a line up of multi-talented artists the sound can change through  guitar-based 12 bar, Chicago brass-backed Blues, to contemporary electronic via Soul and R&B. 

BSR play
a growing repertoire of their own material blended with a mix of less well known covers.  Playing mainly in South-West London and Surrey, they are based at the home of the Blues, the Willoughby Arms in Kingston, where they are resident band.


This is what they said:
"We all had a fantastic time...everyone was on the dance floor singing along.... the guys did a wonderful job, and you were all so professional. THANK YOU so much."


"An absolutely fantastic blues band, The Bourbon Street Revival all but brought the house down in front of a privileged few at the club. Quite why we were not packed out was beyond anyone's ability to comprehend but those that made it there were richly rewarded for making the effort and rocked the night away."



ALBUM:  
The band have started recording in October at Alaska Studios in central London.   The latest new tracks from the forthcoming album were played for the first time
for Alabama 3 at Jamm in December ("Absolution") and in Kingston in October ("Diamond Girl").  


A Demo CD is available - use the e-mail address below to get a copy.   Many thanks to Nathan King for doing the technical stuff.
