CAITLIN KRISKO & THE BROADCAST LIVE AT BROMLEY BLUES CLUB

Recommended to fans of:Tedeschi Trucks Band, Bonnie Raitt, Beth Hart, Elles Bailey, & Marcus KingCaitlin Krisko & The Broadcast return to the UK for the third time, bringing their unmistakable roots rock & roll sound from the mountains of North Carolina back across the Atlantic to celebrate the release of their most personal album yet, Heirloom. The band has earned a devoted international following for their electrifying live shows, razor-sharp songwriting, and the magnetic force of Caitlin Krisko’s powerhouse voice—praised by Rolling Stone as “arguably one of the best kept vocal secrets of the Southeast”.Their new single “Heart of Gold” is already earning national airplay on Planet Rock, and it’s not hard to hear why. With lyrics that dig deep and a performance that hits even deeper, it’s a powerful glimpse into the emotional terrain of Heirloom. As Blues Matters put it: “With Heirloom on the horizon, ‘Heart Of Gold’ marks the beginning of what promises to be a defining era for Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast.”Written in the wake of profound loss from the unexpected passing of Krisko’s mother and guitarist Aaron Austin’s stepfather in 2023, Heirloom explores what we inherit, and what we leave behind. It’s a record about lineage, letting go, and choosing what truly matters. Each track was shaped not just by grief, but by years of resilience, miles on the road, and a deep commitment to creating something real together. Their last run through the UK left audiences stunned, with Bristol 24/7 declaring it “a night that left no one disappointed,” and calling Krisko’s voice “one of the best in the business—soulful yet raw with that raspy ragged edge… mesmerizing.” Now, with Heirloom set to release and momentum swelling on both sides of the Atlantic, the band returns with sharpened focus and undeniable urgency.Whether you’ve been following since day one or are just hearing their name for the first time, don’t miss your chance to be in the room on their upcoming album release tour.

Curtis Salgado

“The Man Who Taught the Blues Brothers to Sing” A true giant of the genre, Curtis Salgado’s career is the stuff of legend. An award-winning vocalist and harmonica master, he famously mentored John Belushi during the filming of Animal House, directly inspiring the creation of The Blues Brothers characters. But his legacy goes far beyond Hollywood; Salgado is a powerhouse performer in his own right. He is a multiple Blues Music Award winner, having taken home the most coveted titles in the industry, including B.B. King Entertainer of the Year, Soul Blues Artist of the Year, and Song of the Year. Billboard magazine hails his music as “inspired and powerful,” while NPR calls him “an icon with a huge voice.” Do not miss the chance to see this living piece of music history on a UK stage.

The Giles Robson Band

“The UK’s International Harmonica Virtuoso” Giles Robson is a trailblazer in the blues world. He is the first and only UK or European artist to appear on Chicago’s legendary Alligator Records, a label that described him as “a blues giant.” His incredible talent on the harp led him to become one of only three British artists—alongside Eric Clapton and Peter Green—to win a prestigious Blues Music Award in Memphis (the Grammys of the Blues). Known for his high-energy, sweat-soaked performances, Robson consistently tops critics’ polls in Mojo, Living Blues, and DownBeat. If you want to witness a master at the height of his powers, this is the set to watch.

Special Guest: Mississippi MacDonald

“The Future of British Soul-Blues” Joining the bill is one of the UK’s finest contemporary talents, Mississippi MacDonald. A three-time UK Blues Awards winner (including Acoustic Blues Artist of the Year), MacDonald has been earning rave reviews on both sides of the Atlantic. Guitarist Magazine praises his playing as “legitimate blues,” while Blues Blast Magazine (USA) calls him “one of the most soulful vocalists in Europe.” With a sound that blends the deep roots of Memphis soul with modern blues grit, MacDonald is widely tipped as the next big thing in the British blues explosion.

Special Guest: Robbin Kapsalis

“The Soul Shaker” Completing this stellar lineup is the dynamic vocalist Robbin Kapsalis. A Chicago native with a voice steeped in the rich musical heritage of the South Side, Kapsalis is a force of nature. Fronting Vintage #18, she earned a Blues Blast Music Award nomination for New Artist Debut Album and has been praised by Living Blues for her “commanding voice.” Known as the “Soul Shaker,” her stage presence is electric, channeling the raw power of Koko Taylor with the sultry delivery of a classic jazz diva. She is the perfect addition to an evening of world-class music.

FURTHER DETAILS ON THE HISTORY OF CURTIS SALGADO

Whatever songs Curtis Salgado brings to the table are going to have his personal soul stamp on them. It’s the singer’s magic bullet, the key element that stirs listeners and sets Salgado apart as one of the most riveting performers on stage today.

Born in 1954, Salgado grew up in Eugene, Oregon with music all around him. His parents’ vast music collection included everything from Fats Waller to Ray Charles, and his older brother and sister turned him on to the soul and blues of Wilson Pickett and Muddy Waters at an early age. He attended a Count Basie performance when he was 13 and decided then and there that music was his calling. After getting his hands on a harmonica, Curtis began devouring the blues of Little Walter and Paul Butterfield, and taught himself to play.

By his early 20s he was already making a name for himself in Eugene’s bar scene, first as the vocalist/harmonica player of The Nighthawks, and later as co-leader of The Robert Cray Band. Salgado quickly developed into a player and singer of remarkable depth, with vocal and musical influences including Otis Redding, O.V. Wright, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, Sonny Boy Williamson I and II, Lightnin’ Hopkins and Howlin’ Wolf.

In 1977, comedian/actor John Belushi was in Eugene filming Animal House. During downtime from production, Belushi caught a typically ferocious Salgado performance and introduced himself during a break. Once Salgado started sharing some of his blues knowledge, a fast friendship grew. Salgado spent hours playing old records for Belushi, teaching him about blues and R&B. Belushi soaked up the music like a sponge and used his new awareness to portray “Joliet” Jake Blues in The Blues Brothers, first as a skit on Saturday Night Live, then a best-selling record album (which was dedicated to Curtis) and finally as a major motion picture (Cab Calloway’s character in the film was named Curtis as an homage).

Once Salgado joined forces with his friend Robert Cray and began playing together as The Robert Cray Band, he found himself sharing stages with many of his heroes, including Muddy Waters, Bobby Bland, Albert Collins and Bonnie Raitt. After Salgado and Cray parted ways in 1982, Curtis went on to front Roomful Of Blues, singing and touring with them from 1984 through 1986. Back home in Oregon, he formed a new band, Curtis Salgado & The Stilettos, and was once again tearing it up on the club scene. He honed his band to a razor’s edge before releasing his debut in 1991 on the JRS label. After recordings for Rhythm Safari and Lucky Records, Salgado signed withShanachie Records in 1999, releasing four critically acclaimed albums. Salgado’s Alligator Records debut, Soul Shot, came out in 2012 to widespread critical acclaim. Blues Revue said Salgado’s music is “triumphant, joyful, blues-soaked R&B” and declared him to be “one of the most soulful, honest singers ever.” He followed up with The Beautiful Lowdown in 2016 and Rough Cut, the potent, stripped-down acoustic album (with guitarist Alan Hager) in 2018. The albums collectively earned Salgado multiple Blues Music Awards—for B.B. King Entertainer Of The Year, Soul Blues Album Of The Year, Song Of The Year and Soul Blues Male Artist Of The Year.

DEL BROMHAM BAND LIVE AT BROMLEY BLUES CLUB

Bromley Blues Club is thrilled to welcome The Del Bromham Band to the stage of Bromley Little Theatre!

Prepare for an unforgettable night as this legendary band delivers their electrifying blend of blues and rock.

Del Bromham says, right from as far as he can remember has always had music in his life. He was just 11 years old when his brother gave him his firstguitar which someone had dumped in his dustbin. By the time he was 12 he was forming his first band at school in Shepherds Bush West London and bythe time he was 14 years old he was playing in his brothers group ‘TheTraders,’ playing the pubs and working men’s clubs. At 15 years of age he wanted to form his own group called ‘The Stray’.

By 1970 at 18 years of age he had signed his first record deal with Transatlantic Records and released the first self-titled album ‘STRAY’.

Stray went on to record around 14 studio and live albums and has toured constantly over the years. There have been other artistes who have covered songs by Del Bromham and STRAY, notably Iron Maiden who recorded and released STRAY’s, arguably best known song,‘All in your Mind’ as the flip side to the 1970 no.1 single ‘Holy Smoke’.

Although with varying line ups over the years, Del still tours as STRAY as well as having his own solo career. He has recorded 4 solo albums.

The last critically acclaimed ‘White Feather’ achieved the best reviews of his career todate.

Del’s autobiography titled ‘Rock and Roll Survivor’ and the new STRAY album titled ‘ABOUT TIME’ was released worldwide in September 2023.

Del will be touring with his trio featuring Karl Randall on drums and Colin‘Curvy’ Kempster on bass guitar. Catch him while you can.

STRAY LIVE AT THE OLD BREWERY STORE

Classic rock powerhouse from the golden age of British rock

STRAY return with their new live album ‘One For The Road’, following their most recent studio album “About Time”, which has been hailed as their greatest work to date.

Formed in West London in 1966, STRAY released their self-titled debut album in 1970 and have been delivering powerhouse British hard rock ever since. The band’s scintillating twin guitar format features original member Del Bromham alongside Pete Dyer, while powerhouse drummer Karl Randall has occupied the position longer than any other. The addition of Pearl Handled Revolver’s Simon Rinaldo on keys and Colin Kempster on bass drives the melodic anthemic songs that have made them legends.

Their track “All in Your Mind” was covered by multi-million selling Iron Maiden, with whom Stray have toured Europe. Tours with Rush and Kiss earned them a truly international reputation that endures to this day.

Their career retrospective on 6 CDs with Esoteric Records was voted into the top 25 Best Album re-releases of 2021, with another compilation of their singles released worldwide later that year. Del Bromham’s autobiography ‘Rock and Roll Survivor’ (Wymer Publishing) has received great critical acclaim.

About the Band

Nashville’s “King of the Blues” comes to Faversham for a rare, intimate, and fully seated showcase.

Rockin’ Roots Events is proud to present a trans-Atlantic blues spectacular featuring the legendary Stacy Mitchhart(Nashville, TN) and the UK’s own triple-award-winning soul-blues sensation, Oli “Mississippi” MacDonald. This is a “plugged-in acoustic” show—stripped back but full of fire, set in a comfortable, fully seated environment.

Stacy Mitchhart Known as the “King of the Blues” in Nashville, Stacy Mitchhart is the long-standing house act at the famed Bourbon Street Blues & Boogie Bar in Printers Alley. A showman in every sense, Stacy holds 13 major endorsements and has been crowned “Blues Entertainer of the Year” and “Acoustic Blues Act of the Year” by the Music City Blues Society.

While he has played to crowds of 50,000 and shared stages with legends like B.B. King and James Brown, this show offers a rare chance to see him up close. He brings his mastery of the Cigar Box Guitar and his “drum-like” percussive playing style to the stage, delivering a high-energy performance that is as humorous as it is gritty.

“I haven’t heard anyone that has that fire in a long time.” — Junior Wells “Watch out! This is one bad, young man.” — Bobby “Blue” Bland

Oli “Mississippi” MacDonald Joining Stacy on stage as special guest is London’s own soul-blues powerhouse, Oli “Mississippi” MacDonald. A 3x UK Blues Award Winner—including 2024 Acoustic Blues Act of the Year—Oli’s sound is steeped in the red clay of Memphis. Having recorded at the legendary Royal Studios with the Hi Rhythm Section (Al Green’s backing band), he has been hailed by Blues In Britain as “one of the finest modern bluesmen in the UK.” He will be performing tracks from his critically acclaimed acoustic album, Slim Pickin’.

The Venue & Seating: Set in the historic Old Brewery Store in Faversham, this event is fully seated to ensure a comfortable and immersive listening experience.

Seating is unreserved and available on a first-come, first-served basis

Capacity is strictly limited to maintain an intimate atmosphere.

Don’t miss this unique collision of Nashville showmanship and London soul.

ALLY VENABLE LIVE AT THE OLD BREWERY STORE, FAVERSHAM

“Make no mistake, Ally Venable kicks ass.”– Fireworks Magazine

“Ally Venable’s new album is a bold, electrifying statement that cements her status as a blues rock powerhouse.”– Blues Matters Magazine

Following her triumphant October 2025 UK Tour, Texas based blues rock guitarist Ally Venable will embark on 10-date UK Tour in September 2026. Special guest on all shows is the celebrated Canadian blues rock phenom, Garret T. Willie.

Ally’s highly anticipated UK tour follows hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed sixth studio album Money & Power released by Ruf Records. The album is available on vinyl, CD and digital HERE.

“Money & Power is such a strong statement, especially for women,” says the award-winning Texas gunslinger of her Nashville-recorded album, on which Ally’s crack-squad band is joined by A-list guests Shemekia Copeland and Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram.

“All the songs on this album showcase the theme of what it truly means to be a force to be reckoned with. I want this record to wake people up,” continues Ally.

Money and power make the world go round. But in the right hands, music can be every bit as potent. Right now, on the heels of 2023’s acclaimed Real Gone – an album that hit #1 on the Billboard Blues Charts and was still in contention a year later – Ally is rated amongst the best young singer-songwriters in American roots, saluted by Total Guitar magazine in its poll of Top 100 Blues Guitarists.

“With her heels, sequins and Les Paul growling on a leash, she’s one of Ruf Record‘s most head-turning young artists,” wrote Classic Rock, “and while the instrumental prowess can be taken as read, Real Gone marks a growing maturity in the Texan’s songcraft.”

In February 2024, with the dust still settling from Real Gone, the Money & Power sessions saw Ally and producer/drummer Tom Hambridge push through the doors of Nashville’s famous Soundstage Studios. And while the studio band was strictly A-list, as always, Ally’s new songs are the real stars. That attitude is palpable on opener “Brown Liquor,” Ally’s battlecry decorated by a stinging guest guitar solo from the Mississippi hotshot Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram.

Money & Power is a modern roots record that plays by its own rules and marches to the beat of its own drum. The same could be said for Ally herself. “I’m thrilled to release this album,” she says. “For me, it’s a sonic embodiment of a woman’s unstoppable ambition, and showcases my musicality on all fronts.”

Alex Hamilton Band is coming to Rainham, Kent — and if you care about blues-rock guitar played at the very highest level, this is the Friday night you need. On Friday 25th September 2026, Rockin’ Roots Events brings this Scottish award-winning power trio to The Oast for one of the most intimate shows on their autumn tour. Live music in Rainham, Kent does not get much better than this.
Alex Hamilton Band — Scottish Blues-Rock at Its Finest
Alex Hamilton has been one of the most quietly compelling figures on the British blues-rock circuit for over a decade. Born in Scotland and raised on the music of Robben Ford, Matt Scofield, and the great American blues tradition, he developed a guitar technique that is immediately distinctive — tasteful, subtle, deeply soulful, and technically extraordinary. His debut album, released when he was just eighteen, won the Scottish New Music Award in 2011. His subsequent albums have all been nominated for the British Blues Awards, several years running. He has toured dozens of venues across Britain and extensively across Europe, regularly selling out theatres and music clubs, and has shared stages with Carl Verheyen, Robert Cray, Aynsley Lister, Henrik Freischlader, and King King. Over 700 shows. Multiple award nominations. A guitarist that other guitarists talk about.
A Power Trio Built for the Stage
The Alex Hamilton Band is Alex on guitar and vocals, his father Nick Hamilton on bass, and Ian Beestin on drums — a trio that has been road-tested across hundreds of venues and built into something genuinely formidable. There is a chemistry here that only comes from years of playing together, and a live energy that has been winning audiences from Yorkshire to the Netherlands and back again. The Oast’s intimate top room is exactly the right setting to hear what this band can do — close enough to feel every note, small enough that nothing is lost.
Career Highlights
★ Scottish New Music Award — Won at age eighteen for his debut album in 2011
★ Scottish Jazz/Blues Album of the Year — Award-winning recognition from the Scottish music community
★ British Blues Awards — Multiple nominations across several years running
★ 700+ Shows — Across Britain and Europe, regularly selling out theatres and music clubs
★ Shared Stages With — Robert Cray, Carl Verheyen, Aynsley Lister, Henrik Freischlader, King King
★ That Pedal Show Endorsed — Featured and praised by Daniel Steinhardt of the world’s most-watched guitar show
★ Continuous Radio Play — Across the UK and internationally
★ Robben Ford & Matt Scofield Comparisons — The technical company his playing keeps
What the Press & Fellow Artists Say
★ “Alex has that musical quality in his playing that can’t be taught. He exudes soul. I’m a big fan” — Daniel Steinhardt, That Pedal Show
★ “A tasteful and subtle guitar technique compared to Robben Ford and Matt Scofield” — Blues press
★ “Multiple award-winning albums, a strong fanbase, and continuous radio play across the world — Alex Hamilton’s music is starting to be heard” — Official biography
An Evening Not to Be Missed
When Daniel Steinhardt of That Pedal Show — a man who has played and reviewed more guitars than almost anyone on the planet — says someone exudes soul and calls himself a big fan, you pay attention. Alex Hamilton has been quietly building one of the most respected reputations on the British blues-rock circuit for over a decade, and The Oast on a Friday night in September is exactly the kind of room where a guitarist of this calibre can really let the music breathe.
Intimate. Focused. Limited capacity. Blues guitar Rainham Kent at its very best. Friday 25th September — get your tickets before they go.

The Oast, Rainham Kent — A Venue With a Story
The Oast is one of Rainham’s most iconic buildings — constructed in the early 1870s by the Wakeley Brothers, it has overlooked Rainham station for over a century. Originally built for drying hops, it was saved from sale in the 1970s and converted into a thriving community centre run entirely by volunteers. That history gives the place a character that purpose-built venues simply can’t manufacture — exposed brickwork, a sense of occasion, and the kind of intimate atmosphere that puts you right in the room with the music. The venue sits directly adjacent to Rainham Station with parking at the rear — easy to get to, easy to get home from. This event will be held in the top room of The Oast, Rainham, Kent.
