Kyla Brox, one of the finest young blues singers in the UK, is on her way to our neck of the woods.
The 29-year-old daughter of veteran bluesman Victor Brox has fronted her own band since 2002 and has recorded five albums, featuring a mix of funky, jazz-tinged blues. The band is comprised of Kyla – who has been compared as a vocalist to Dana Gillespie and Nina Simone – on vocals and flute, guitarists Danny Blomeley and Marshall Gill, Tony Marshall on saxophones and drummer Phil Considine.
Support comes from Lucy Zirins, a Lancastrian teenager who blends performances of her own material with covers of songs by artists such as Leadbelly and Muddy Waters.
Catch The Kyla Brox Band and Lucy Zirins at Keighley Blues Club on Friday, December 18. For tickets, ring (01535) 600310.
