The Red Dog Saloon Band

Capital Blues at the Crossroads is pleased to welcome the Red Dog Saloon Band back to Jack Hackett’s on the 11th. It’ll be a night of groove, Delta blues featuring Dave Murphy – ‘New Zealand’s blues man’ and that eclectic west coast kiwi style of Dougal Spier….the big man with the big sound. On drums Roger Watkins and Elliot Fuimaono on bass.

Dave Murphy plays Finger Picking Blues in the style of Mississippi John Hurt, Robert Johnson and a whole host of other old blues guys.  Dougal Speir on the other hand is more adept at ripping off lead riffs unheard of since the death of the likes of Roy Buchanan, Rory Gallagher or Jimi Hendrix! You can imagine what sort of combination they form together on stage.

So if you want to hear the greatest mix of country blues you can dance to, enjoy your listening time, and maybe even have a bit of a jive, let the Red Dog Saloon Band fill your needs!
