Steve Morrison

Guitarist and songwriter Steve Morrison brings something distinct to the blues. Having developed an ability to blend bass-lines, chords and melodies into a seamless guitar style, he constantly amazes audiences: how can one man play two or three musical parts on the one instrument? How does he makes it look so effortless? Yet Steve is not another soulless technician. A master of open-chord tunings, Steve's slide guitar connects directly back to the Delta, colouring his many original songs — and highly individual takes on some classics — that are all delivered with a voice that oozes authenticity and passion. Everyone who's heard him agrees: Steve Morrison is not another copyist, he draws from the blues of the past to create an altogether modern, socially relevant new picture.

Mark Walker

Mark Walker has played percussion for Rolf Harris since the 1990s, appearing with him around the world, from the Albert Hall to Capetown, not to mention at his many infamous Glastonbury performances. Originally a kit player - he was one of the initial drummers in the Lion King - he has spent the past few years developing a style and technique that combines kit and percussion, creating an original and distinctive groove that makes him a perfect partner for Steve, adding both driving and subtle rhythms to the music.
