The Hitman from New York City and his Hitman Blues Band return to The Stables as part of their 20th Anniversary UK tour. They play original modern/alternative Blues and inspired versions of blues classics = blues for the 21st century! The common thread for every tune is the blues - from soulful blues ballads to foot tappin' music to make you want to dance. Powerful vocals, ripping guitar, a solid rhythm section and stirring backing vocals, plus a little humour in the narrative. This is a blues show like no other.
The Hitman Blues Band consistently get great album reviews and feature in the top of the blues charts around the world.
Their latest album 'Hey Can You Guys Play...' has received superb reviews:
“Will get your dancing shoes moving.” - Crossroads Blues Society
“A captivating mixture.” - Lee County Courier, Mississippi USA
"An album that delivers great pleasure with a genuinely innovative, bold approach that works fabulously." Blues Matters magazine UK
“Led by New York guitarist Russell ‘Hitman’ Alexander, Hitman has a striking, charismatic personality and knows how to entertain and put on a show with superb danceable blues and great covers. Born to play and with real personality, as he tells stories, jokes with the crowd, proudly features his excellent band and plays a spiky guitar with great panache and soul. What a find you may think and you’d be right.” – Blues Matters magazine UK.
