A welcome return of the Richard Rozze Band for another cracking night of top class music at Orpington Liberal Club.

Richard (guitars and vocals) will showcase songs from his critically acclaimed album, Lion, with Steve Bridgland on bass and Wez Johnson on drums.

His electric guitar playing embraces blues, rock, and jazz, with intelligent, uplifting songwriting at its core. He has been compared to guitarists as wide-ranging as Peter Green, Eric Johnson, and Wes Montgomery, and his voice echoes Nick Drake and Jackson Browne.

Richard’s songwriting is ” full of the longing and pathos of the blues; songs that mirror the human condition with music that fuses rock aggression, jazz sensibilities, beautiful sounds and sheer musical invention.’

In addition to his electric guitar playing Richard is an accomplished acoustic player who can be heard with folk Trio Open Water.

Floorspots to kick off the proceedings with the guests coming on to play their 1st set at around 8.15 pm. Contributions from singers, musicians & poets are all welcome. Please arrive early if you’d like to do a turn.

Hat collection in CASH for the guests with a suggested minimum of £8. Please give more if you can afford it. It’s free entry for OLC members & £1 for others payable at the bar.

The CAMRA award-winning bar (Card payments only) & club premises are open on the day from 7 pm.
