The PERTH BLUES CLUB presents

Bald Head + Karski Daly Blues

Bald Head | 7.30pm

Much like the iconic landform and tourist trap located just outside of their hometown of Albany, from which they have appropriated their name, Bald Head aim to attract, impact and exhaust. We have also taken great care in our efforts to resemble the smooth, gleaming, weather polished, feather-free ‘Grail’ that awaits trekkers at the end of the goat track. Bald Head has also taken pains to replicate the immensity of the three-hour hike by struggling their own way through numerous three-hour blues sessions at various live music haunts in and around Albany. As self-proclaimed Cultural Attaché’s to the region we call home, the Bald Head contingent are considering this July ramble up to Perth, a tourist advertisement of sorts.
Rev, Kimbo and Ringo, are joined for this event by LeFrench Taunter on bass, who incidentally has not stopped asking or a setlist. Get ready for some soulful and powerful blues renditions of some of our favourites from across the decades.

Karski Daly Blues | 9.00pm

'Karski Daly Blues' is an outfit that grew out of 'the Nervous Investors' and 'the Heavy Hitters', both righteous acts on the Perth Blues scene for some years. With the passing of Roy Daniel, bassist for both bands, the time came for his former band mates to join forces and close ranks. The result is a harmonica and guitar driven quartet with a driving dance edge and dual vocals, featuring; Paul Daly - (vocals and blues harp) with his signature vocal and harp style, engaging stage presence and honest delivery, Paul has established a loyal fan base on the WA blues scene with The Shinkickers. Mike Hagerty Jnr - (drums) Award winning groove-king and always in demand, his unique feel and swing drives the pulse like no other, he'll Boogie till you barf ! Pat Savina - (bass) filling Roy Daniel's sonic footprint is no easy task, but Pat has managed to step in with his own inimitable style, whilst maintaining the integrity of the groove that needed preserving. His soloing is both inventive and unique. Lez Karski - (vocals and guitar) Lez's history on the Australian Blues scene is well documented, appearing with the Foreday Riders, the Hippos, Bondi Cigars, Donkeys and the Nervous Investors. Too old to know better and too silly to stop, he's still having fun playing the Blues with his friends. Together 'Karski Daly Blues' intend to keep up a tradition of dance driven Blues designed to engage the heart, soul and feet of anyone within earshot.
