Premier rock ‘n’ roll legend Joe Brown goes from
strength to strength as his contemporary achievements continue to gather
momentum.
His ‘Very Best Of’ album achieved a Gold Record for a
massive 120,000 sales and was on the UK charts for eight weeks staying four
weeks in the Top 20. In September the same year his 50th anniversary was
celebrated with a wonderful sell-out show at the Royal Albert Hall. He has
continued to break box office records and recently received MOJO magazine’s
coveted Outstanding Contribution To Music Award as well as a much
deserved MBE.
You may have seen Joe performing on Later With Jools
Holland or at the cinema playing his part closing the show at the Concert For
George Harrison. You may have witnessed his critically acclaimed set at
Glastonbury Festival or caught him on tour. If you have you’ll already know
just what a terrific live talent he is.
Joe, with his five piece band including his son and
record producer Pete Brown, will be on stage all evening and the musical styles
incorporated into his new show break more boundaries and are as unique as the
man himself.
His new CD The Ukulele Album has been riotously well
received and several of the tunes from it appear on this tour which is also
packed with timeless classics, rockabilly, gospel, country, folk, and rock ‘n’
roll, all interwoven with Joe’s effervescent delivery and humorous
reminiscences this sensational show is a musical journey not to be missed.
