Most recent/Next visit to The Borderline Club:    Friday 3rd October 2003

Borderline Comment:

Jim Kirkpatrick recently left the band after 4 great years to pursue a new musical direction with Thea Gilmore and will be appearing on the Jools Holland show later in October (2003).

As you know Jim is a very special guitarist and to try and replace him could have proved extremely difficult. So Al (bass) and Padraig (drums) have decided to change the style slightly, while still retaining the best traditions of Rhythm and Blues, and have added two new members.

On guitar and vocals they have recruited 22 year-old James Harrison and on piano/organ and vocals there's Geoff Lane. The new line up has been rehearsing hard for the past few weeks and started gigging on September 26th.

They are also currently finalizing dates for a British Tour with Chicago Bluesman James Wheeler, which will start April 12th 2004 in the UK, and finishes with Festival dates in Germany April 21st-24th.
