We are delighted to welcome back the brilliant James Oliver, wielding his 1950's Telecaster. Always hugely entertaining evenings. this time with the added bonus of Norman Watt-Roy, original member of The Blockheads and Madness, on bass. This will be fun!
James Oliver has already rubbed shoulders with many of the greats of the guitar firmament Albert Lee..Bill Kirchen..Greg Koch to name a few Now, having recorded three vital, very contemporary albums with his old band, he is preparing to write a new chapter of not only his career but also Welsh music history.
His progress since forming Glas in early 2012 has been steady with nearly 2000 gigs since, playing every gig in the Valleys before expanding horizons beyond. See him on stage, though, and spectacular is very much the word.

And with new musicians to interact with, chances are the music in store will exhibit hitherto unheard dimensions to delight his growing army of fans.

Blues, rock a billy, rock and country…it’s all here in one explosive pickin package’
