A Blues band that Rocks - One of the best R&B Bands in Hants/Dorset

Robbie,

Just wanted to say thanks for the gig and for being flexible with the timing for the England match.

I know they don't tend to show their appreciation quite as flamboyantly as some (most!) crowds but, rest assured, when I popped in yesterday, several people were using the word "excellent" and I heard no comments that were short of being very positive indeed.

Cheers,

Rich. (Social Club Secretary Mudeford Men's Club)

Hi Rob and the guys
We had a marvelous party, thank you so much , everyone was delighted with your music . I will certainly be recommending you to our friends and the businesses that Mike and I look after.

Best wishes

Take care Tina

I recently caught Shoestring blues in the act at the Plough. It was obvious from what I saw and heard that they and the punters were really enjoying themselves. From slow raw blues to the more energetic numbers they cover, they play as one. This band I will certainly go back to see and recommend to friends.

When you receive a phone call from a friend, who say’s what are you doing Friday night?
“ Why, you ask?” well we’re off to The King Charles to see a band.
You tend to think hmm do I really want to go? What’s the name of the band? What are they like?
Will I be disappointed? What do they play?

Well in this case, I can honestly say that I am more then please to say that I did go.

Shoestring Blues are one of the best blues rock bands that I have seen for some time. This was a great night for the band, the audience started off on the small side, but they showed there appreciation and knowledge of the great rock & smooth blues that was emanating from the stage area. A great atmosphere developed as more and more people we’re enticed up from the bar to we’re the band were playing. The band just took off, some sublime blues and stonkin rock from Iain the bands lead guitarist, solid drumming from Rob the bands drummer the other members Ian lead vocals/rhythm guitar & Riche the bass had no choice but to go with the other two. A great night and a great band well worth going to see.

Love Carole

Hi Rob and the rest of Shoestring Blues. I saw you for the first time at the Manor Arms on Friday, you were really brill, particularly enjoyed the lead guitar solo bits. Iain is an amazing guitarist.
