The TinMen – whippin’ up a red hot serving of the bluesThe TinMen play dusky blues of a local stripe, where the hot howling breath of Chicago’s south side meets the huff and puff of Adelaide’s suburban toil. Respectful of the great blues harp and guitar masters – Little Walter, Muddy Waters, Sonny Boy Williamson, T-Bone Walker – The TinMen shape the sound to fit comfortably inside a nifty, nimble four-piece combo that shimmies and shakes in all the right places. Our kinda blues, from the Southside o’ Croydon.
Smirkin’ MarJn Davies, TinMen’s erstwhile guitarist, lead vocalist and gentle man of modest means, wisely spent his years of COVID-19 disruption whittlin’ away at a whole batch of new The TinMen original songs. Adding just the right amount of moanin’ and complainin’ to nifty riffs that drill deep into the sweet spot of your consciousness, The Tin Men have now conjured a mighty collection of new blues standards from the heartland of Adelaide’s Western suburbs.
With Tony Lewis on howlin’ harmonica and sweet vocals, Dave Sly whacking drums and barking out backing vocals and Chris Woods being sensible and solid on bass guitar, this sturdy quartet has shaped a proud and defiant TinMen sound – true blue, through and through.
When TinMen take the stage Pour yourself a long drink and get ready to stomp your shoes.
There’s a gonna be a raging blue party goin’ on.
