The Achievers (acoustic set) with Greg Brice

THE ACHIEVERS:
Over the past decade The Achievers have garnered an international reputation for being one of the very finest, most accomplished and original live bands performing Blues, Americana and Roots music in Europe. Their shows, headlining clubs and festivals around the world, are life-affirming demonstrations of the power of live music – creating intimate concert atmospheres brimming with laughter, positivity and rich musicality. Their infectious rhythms, joyful melodies and jaw-dropping vocal harmonies have gained them much critical acclaim, multiple UK Blues Award nominations and saw them win the highly prodigious UK Blues Challenge in 2019. They reached the semi-final of the International Blues Challenge in Memphis, Tennessee in January 2020 and the finals of the European Blues Challenge in Malmo, Sweden in 2022. To celebrate 10-years of touring and their friendship as a genuine band, they are undertaking a series of intimate acoustic concerts in England and Wales. The Achievers stand proudly as British Blues & Roots outliers, never quite fitting into one box or another – but always offering a truly unique, and highly entertaining night of original roots music.

GREG BRICE:
Back when Greg Brice played the pubs, clubs and bars of the West Midlands he’d often find some of the toughest audiences you could imagine hanging on his every word within a few bars. His intricate fingerstyle guitar and strident electric slide connected in the raw and immediate way that only proper roots music can. And that voice – clear as a bell, powerful and pure. Now, in the hush of the UKs Blues and Americana clubs it’s the quality of his song writing that’s capturing people’s imagination. Within just days of launching his debut album crowd funding campaign, those lucky enough to have already discovered him came out in force. They knew something that the rest of the UK Blues scene will soon realise – that Greg Brice is a proper talent.
