Larry Garner & Norman Beaker
"Larry
Garner
is without doubt one of the top modern day Blues artistes touring the
world today , his songs are stories of his past and everybody’s present.
Larry was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where he picked up on the Swamp
Blues music popular in that area, inspired by artistes such as
Silas Hogan
and
Clarence Edwards.
His songs are delivered with a sense of irony, his lyrics are both
meaningful and amusing in equal measure. Added to this Larry has a
wonderfully expressive voice, is a fine guitarist and a great performer.
Larry has won many awards including
WC Handy
Award
and is one of the most adored performers on the Concert / Festival scene
all over the World.

 When
Larry first came to England he toured with the Norman Beaker Band and at
last they are reunited.
The
Norman Beaker Band
have been at the forefront of the UK blues scene for over 3 decades
working with a Who’s Who of Blues stars including,
BB King,
Buddy Guy,
Alexis Korner,
Jack
Bruce,
Van
Morrison,
Chuck Berry
and many more.
Like Larry, Norman’s songs are also full of social comment and modern
day situations, this is a coming together of two modern day Troubadours
with something new to say."
