HARTFORD, CT, July 20: Everybody gets the blues — but nobody plays them like Bees Deluxe. Catch the British-Boston band as they bring the genre-bending brand of music that they call “acid blues” to Black Eyed Sally's in Downtown Hartford, Connecticut on Saturday July 20th.
Highly musical, wildly improvisational and endlessly entertaining, Bees Deluxe pushes the limits of convention with a sound that is distinct yet rooted in the rich history of the blues. With a repertoire of off-beat originals—some featured on their new album, Hallucinate) and fresh takes on tunes by blues legends like Etta James, BB King, Freddie King, Billie Holiday, Robert Cray and more, Bees Deluxe takes their audiences on a deep and thoroughly enjoyable dive into the blues.
Fronted by British guitar phenom Conrad Warre, who toured with Joe Jackson and The English Beat and was a regular on stage at the legendary CBGB’s, and Doug Rich on bass guitar, Paul Giovine drums & percussion and Carol Band on keyboards, vocals & harmonica. The band has captivated audiences around the country and has shared the stage with blues royalty like Ronnie Earl, Walter Trout, Mike Zito, Joanna Connor, Joanne Shaw Taylor and Matt Schofield. Their new, all-original album, Hallucinate, is getting rave reviews and international airplay.
Check out "Hallucinate" the new Bees Deluxe original album: "This is what Steely Dan would sound like if they played the blues, " says John Kereiff of The Rock Doctors Hot Wax Album Reviews.
"Their music is the stuff of nightmares and imagination - Think of music produced by Willy Wonka and Frank Zappa - If Alice had turned her tea party into a blues jam and left the Cheshire Cat and the Mad Hatter in charge with Salvador Dali as the band leader. The music of Bees Deluxe is amazingly unpredictable, delightfully improvisational, and remarkably creative. Chicago blues takes a few tabs of acid and the results are a fascinating kaleidoscope of pulsating dreams, visions, and even nightmares. Professor Marvel is taking you for a balloon ride but it is certainly out of control . Enjoy this roller coaster ride with all its twists and turns , spinning you every which way, your heart racing, your pulse soaring, reality crashing all around you as your senses teeter towards a new dimension. Welcome to the music of "Bees Deluxe" and their incredible new album "Hallucinate."
— John Muller, North Jersey Blues Society
