Bees Deluxe launch new album at the C Note
HULL, MA, Feb 15: Massachusetts Bay gets the blues when Bees Deluxe, the British-American sensation, comes to the stage at the C Note, The South Shore’s coolest live music venue on Saturday February the 15th for an evening of British/American acid blues featuring Carol Band, keyboards, vocals & harmonica, Jake Fletcher bass, Paul Giovine drums and Conrad Warre on vocals & guitars.
The band will be celebrating the release of the latest album “Smash Hits” containing live and studio cuts including a few of their favorite re-arranged classic covers, a slew of their own compositions, and one home-demo tape.
Fronted by guitarist Warre —who headlined at CBGB’s and toured with the Joe Jackson Band and The English Beat, Bees Deluxe dares to venture into uncharted musical waters—breaking rules, taking chances and bending the blues genre into something entirely new, highly musical and wonderfully entertaining. On stage at the C Note, the Bees Deluxe quartet of Band, Fletcher, Giovine and Warre will break down to their musical roots and shake the floorboards with their incendiary modern and vintage tunes.
“This is what Steely Dan would sound like if they played the blues,” raves John Kereiff of The Rock Doctors Hot Wax Album Reviews.
The Bees Deluxe repertoire reinvents tunes by artists ranging from Etta James and Billie Holiday to BB King and Burt Bacharach as well as an arsenal of addictive compositions that address aliens, burnt pizza, love and conspiracy theories, the band takes the blues into a whole new dimension. Bees Deluxe is not your average blues band. Their music is improvisational, full of unanticipated aural surprises but still approachable, even for fans of traditional blues. Their slow blues songs can make a grown man weep and their up-tempo foot-shaking tunes drive folks to the dance-floor. Bees Deluxe have shared the stage with Ronnie Earl, Joanna Connor, Mike Zito, Matt Schofield, Joanne Shaw Taylor and many other contemporaries.
"Bees Deluxe make a form of music that includes jazz/funk/psych/Latin/groove and, most especially BLUES. But it isn’t a case of “this track has Latin influence”, no, every track has all those influences, but it makes for something that is genuinely fresh sounding while being as old as the hills. They play very tight Blues that sounds as though they are jamming but this is very tight, and the playing is absolutely superb." — Andy Snipper, Music News
