This Saturday night, Eumundi is set to rock as blues harmonica legend Doc Span joins forces with guitar virtuoso Tim Gaze at the Imperial Hotel.
Charismatic, American born Doc Span has been exciting audiences for decades with his thrilling harmonica and authentic smooth and grainy voice. He plays R&B harmonica in the Paul Butterfield/Charlie Musselwhite tradition, styling the sound with amplification and mic techniques.
This guy is the real deal. Born in Hoboken, New Jersey, Span was playing the blues clubs of Chicago in the 1960s during the formative years of classic urban blues. He toured the US and Latin America for years before settling in Australia, where he has established himself as one of the premier harmonica players on the scene.
Joining Span on the night will be master of guitar Tim Gaze; with Gus Fenwick on bass (after touring with Brian Cadd), and Max Sportelli on drums.
Span will be launching his latest CD ‘Burning Memory’, featuring all-new, original numbers with a brilliant line-up of international grooves and musicians.
