Big Gilson is one of Brazil's finest blues and blues/rock guitarists playing dynamite blues guitar and a wicked slide. For his UK tour in 2024, he will be re united with Stray's guitarist Del Bromham - an explosive combination! And the UK Blues Dynamite rhythm section of ex Sassafras and Mick Clarke Band drummer Chris Sharley and bassist Derek White ( Larry Miller's band, Storm Warning, Long Road Home, Bernie Marsden amongst others).
In the US Big Gilson has previously impressed at Buddy Guy's Legends Club in Chicago and BB King said about Big Gilson “...When I see such a young man so far from America, playing the blues so well, I feel happy and proud that my mission in this life is done” B.B. King
Big Gilson has honed his chops the last thirty five years gigging in South & North America, and Europe and has opened for Steve Winwood on his Brazilian tour, Johnny Rivers (70.000 people audience), and twice to the master B.B. King. While touring America, and gigging at such clubs as Florida’s Bamboo Room, New York’s Blue Note, and all over Chi-town, Big Gilson and his band knocked out such blues gods as Canned Heat, Mick Taylor, Tab Benoit, Corey Harries, Duke Robillard, Lonnie Brooks, Magic Slim, Saffire, Walter “Wolfman” Washington, Johnny Winter and Buddy Guy, who extended the boy from Brazil an open invitation to play his Legends Club anytime.
" From the first note, it's clear that this is a guitar album. A great record -- well produced, exceptionally arranged, and fun." BLUES REVUE magazine - USA.
“There is something about the enthusiasm of the performance that is really pleasing.” “Each song evinces the high-octane Gilson sound while simultaneously having own unique flavour.” BLUES IN BRITAIN magazine:
“...Excellent guitar solos full of feelings and powerful slide playing. He’s vibrato is super cool...” Guitar Player Magazine - Brazil
“…Big Gilson is an excellent guitarist as well as a splendid slide guitarist and a fine song writer in addition. He plays a scorching electric slide. Watch for great things to come in the future from this very fine artist…” Tom Branson - Bluesrockers
