THE LARRY MILLER BAND are coming to The Bullfrog Blues Club at The Cellars At Eastney next Wednesday, 6th August - and the Barking Spider (who has organised Larry's last two storming tours of Ireland) will be there too, to enjoy what's sure to be a great night! THE LARRY MILLER BAND have built up a huge following all over the U.K. and have performed alongside artists as diverse as Peter Green, Ian Gillan, Climax Blues Band, Thunder and Walter Trout. Larry Miller is a master of the guitar - and fast becoming the UK's top new blues rock guitarist. Larry’s charismatic personality overflows as he possesses the stage, becoming an in-your-face rock star who truly lets rip - no wonder he‘s known as "the happiest blues guitarist on the circuit" . A plethora of nation-wide live work in the U.K. includes performing to thousands at the Reading Festival, The Kent Bike Show, and the massive Bulldog Bash. Larry’s played alongside the likes of Thunder, Ian Gillan, Climax Blues Band, Peter Green and Walter Trout, and met up with Eric Clapton, Rory Gallagher, Gary Moore, and Alvin Lee along the way. Rory Gallagher became a personal friend, and actually shared the cover of his "Stagestruck" album with Larry! The best of the 1970s rock trios are still Larry's musical touchstones. After building a reputation as one of the successors to these pioneers, his music has been heard all over the world, and unadulterated rock and blues is still 'his bag'. There are a=2 0million guitarists and singers out there, but only one Larry Miller. Here’s what the press says….. “THE NATURAL SUCCESSOR TO RORY GALLAGHER AND ALVIN LEE” (‘International Encyclopaedia of Rock`) (‘International Encyclopaedia of Rock`) “A FANTASTIC, WORLD CLASS GUITARIST”(‘Bluesrockers’, USA) (‘Bluesrockers’, USA) “HIGHLY IMPRESSIVE - A TOTAL VICTORY” ‘Kerrang’ UK) ‘Kerrang’ UK) “HIS GUITAR PLAYING IS SIMPLY MESMERISING` (‘Bluesmatters’ UK) (‘Bluesmatters’ UK) `THE BEST IN-YER-FACE ROCK BAND AROUND`(‘The Guardian’ UK) (‘The Guardian’ UK) ‘A BLUES ROCK POWER HOUSE` (‘The Guardian’ UK) (‘The Guardian’ UK) `THIS IS ENTERTAINMENT WITH A CAPITAL `E`”(‘Blues in Britain‘, UK) (‘Blues in Britain‘, UK) ‘Berry invented it, Jagger modified it, Nugent abused it…and LARRY Miller looks set to once again redefine the whole damn package!’ (‘Kerrang!’) Well.... you can't argue with that!
