All the Kings Men: A Tribute to BB, Albert, Freddie & Earl King

Four of Australia’s leading blues players – Ray Beadle, Darren Jack, Rosscoe Clark & Grant Cummerford – are joining forces to salute four of the blues’ biggest and most influential artists.

There are few blues fans and guitarists who haven’t fallen under the spell of the playing and vocals of B.B King, Albert King, Freddie King and Earl King. Now Australian performers Darren `Jacko’ Jack, Ray Beadle, Grant Cummerford and Rosscoe Clark have put together a show to salute these blues greats, putting their own stamp on their best known titles.

Guitarists Darren Jack and Ray Beadle are worthy exponents of highly charged emotional attack style of the Kings, and are widely recognised on the national blues circuit. In recent years both have been voted Performer of the Year by the Sydney Blues Society, and performed in The Memphis Blues Challenge. Another Memphis Blues Challenger is Rosscoe Clark, the go-to blues’ drummer in Sydney, and enduring member of the veteran band The Cyril B Bunter Band and the Foreday Riders. Bassist Grant Cummerford has clocked up the miles with Darren Jack and globetrotting guitar virtuoso Jeff Lang.
