British/American Acid Blues Band Bees Deluxe Launches Album at The Shrine

With copies of their new album, Hallucinate, packed between the bass drum and the guitar amp in their ancient van, Bees Deluxe is hitting the road for a whirlwind mini-tour to not only promote their new recording, but to share the unique sound they call "acid blues."

The band, fronted by British guitar phenom Conrad Warre includes Carol Band on keys and harmonica, Paul Giovine on drums and Jeff Lopes on bass. "There's nothing like spending five days on the road with your bandmates," says Giovine. "We sing along to obscure cassette tapes, share the driving and only stop for coffee and yard sales-always looking for a Stradivarius or a Les Paul."

On, Thursday, March 7th, Bees Deluxe hits the stage at The Shrine World Music Venue in Harlem, NY. They hit the stage at 10pm after a performance by the Ken Kobayashi Project.
