The Mid Wales Rhythm and Blues Club

Mike Ross Band plus Mike Parker Duo
2024-04-20 19:30 - 23:00 (Europe/London) | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
We are very excited to announce that The Mike Ross Band will be coming to The Muse at Brecon for the MWR&BC.
Mike’s really looking forward to bringing the full band back to Brecon, off the back of his national tour in March with legendary South West southern rockers Sons Of Liberty!
This will be probably the last Welsh headline show from the MRB as he’ll be retiring the band from touring at the end of 2024, so make sure you bag your tickets early to avoid missing out!

https://www.mikerossmusic.co.uk/
Featuring also the Mike Parker Duo

Roots blues, folk & Americana come together skillfully in the repertoire of singer/songwriter Mike Parker. So, if you’re a fan of strong musicianship, meticulous yet free guitar picking and have a love of steel guitars then you will not be disappointed! Joining Mike will be James Davies on harp & vocals and they’re looking forward to opening for Mike Ross again, this time round with his full band.

The Washboard Resonators
2024-03-03 19:00 - 22:30 | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
The Muse together with the Mid Wales Rhythm and Blues Club are very pleased to announce the return of The Washboard Resonators…
Always a great night, these friends of the venue have gathered huge support from audiences in Brecon since their first appearance with the Folk and More Club, and are not to be missed!
Consummate performers, you’ll be sure of a great night out, with their hand crafted foot-stomping blues, ragtime, swing and folk music.
The Washboard Resonators hail from Leeds in England and can be described as sounding and looking like ‘a ragtime street band meets a Hollywood musical on a theatre stage somewhere in around 1932’

Dave Arcari
2024-02-11 19:30 - 23:00 | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
Slide guitarist & songwriter Dave Arcari‘s alt.blues sounds owe as much to trash country, punk and rockabilly as they do pre-war Delta blues and have been showcased via seven internationally acclaimed solo album releases on labels including Buzz, Dixie-frog and Blue North. After a successful Kickstarter campaign his latest album Devil May Care is set for release on red vinyl in November 2023.

A top three finalist in UK Blues Federation’s UK Blues Awards 2023. Arcari’s music features in numerous BBC TV programmes as well as popular USA series The Deadliest Catch.
While continuing to build his audience in the USA with once or twice-annual tours since 2013 – including official showcases at SxSW in Austin, Texas – Arcari maintains his presence on the UK and European touring and festival circuits with regular live shows throughout the year.
The ultimate validation for Arcari’s music and performance came in 2019 when National Reso-Phonic Guitars launched the ‘Dave Arcari signature model’ guitar. Arcari joins an elite and exclusive group of players who have signature models and is the first – and only – musician outside the USA to be honoured by the iconic instrument maker whose name is synonymous with the development of the blues genre.

The Achievers (acoustic set) with Greg Brice
2023-12-08 19:30 - 23:00 | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
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.

No stranger to the streets of Brecon, Joe Kelly hails from Newport but has spent a significant amount of time on the road, living life as an itinerant songwriter.
Whilst holed up in an old police station during the pandemic, Joe began fleshing out years of self-penned material with the help of the Royal Pharmacy, a crew of the finest musicians around. Their first album, the Americana leaning ‘World On Fire’ is available to stream now, with the second, ‘Cast Me Down’ set for release early next year.
Either solo or full band, Joe Kelly brings together folk, rock and soul influences with a country twang and a whole lotta grit.

Mike Ross plus Michael Parker & James Davies
2023-09-09 19:30 - 23:00 | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
January 2023 brought with it ‘The Preacher’ – debut track from Mike Ross’ new 12-track album ‘Third Eye Open’ (out April ’23). Metalplanetmusic described it as “a snakehipped charmer..slinky & self assured…a new anthem that should be played loud!”
Kerrang! called Mike Ross “Burnt in Blues, Soaked in Soul!” – a description that holds true of Mike’s multiple facets: songwriting, multi-instrumental talents, gritty riff-busting, yet eloquent, guitarist & also his vocals, all of which come to the fore on his latest solo releases.
Mike has collaborated with some of the brightest lights in the UK emerging artists scene, such as Elles Bailey, Jack J Hutchinson & Troy Redfern. What’s more, he’s an international touring musician who has played live music on every continent & in most European countries.
“Third Eye Open is a real bone-shaker of a record,” says Mike of his new album. “There’s definitely been a feeling of coming ‘full circle’ this this time around, bringing all of my influences & material bang up to date & the final 12 track behemoth of a record is hands down the biggest, fattest, nastiest, chunkiest thing I’ve ever done!”
He’s earned critical acclaim from every point of the music compass: Classic Rock, Maverick Magazine, Planet Rock Radio, BBC Radio, Music News. As Henry Yates put it in Classic Rock Magazine: “You need to know Mike Ross.” True then: true now.

Otway & Barrett
2023-05-21 19:30 - 23:00 | The Muse at Brecon, The Muse, Glamorgan Street, Brecon, Powys, LD37DW, United Kingdom
MWR&BC Proudly Presents
50 YEARS OF OTWAY AND BARRETT TOUR
Still going strong after 50 years and featuring all the original members. Loved for their total in-yer-face originality, the contrast between the dead pan humour of Barrett and mad onstage antics of Otway are hilarious to watch. John’s lyrical genius and Willy’s outstanding musicianship (he seems to play almost every stringed instrument known to man, plus a few hybrids of his own making!) almost become an added extra. For any Otway/Barrett virgins out there who don’t know what to expect, be prepared for everything from bare-chested Theremin playing to wah wah wheelie bin as the duo jump from one hit and 40 near misses to another: An amazing and irreverent performance by two master entertainers.
