Roomful of Blues is an iconic band that has become synonymous with blues and swing music revival since its inception over 50 years ago. Founded in Rhode Island, Roomful of Blues has toured extensively around the world and recorded countless albums, earning them numerous accolades and a dedicated fan base.
The band features the exceptional talents of Bristol's own Carl Gerhard, who adds a unique flair to their sound. Roomful of Blues' music is characterized by its high-energy and infectious rhythm that has earned them a reputation for being a powerhouse live act.
Their live performances have been described as nothing short of electrifying, with audiences being transported back in time to the golden era of blues and swing. Critics have praised the band's impeccable precision, energy, and swagger, as they expertly blend together blues, jazz, and swing into a sound that is entirely their own. Roomful of Blues' impact on the blues and swing revival scene cannot be overstated, and their legacy continues to inspire new generations of musicians and fans.
Join us under the tent on the HMM Waterfront, rain or shine, and enjoy the show in comfort. Feel free to bring your own lawn chairs, or take advantage of the tables, chairs, and picnic tables provided on site. You can even bring your own food and drinks, but don't worry if you forget - caterers will be selling delicious food at all shows.
