Today Award-winning Blues-Rock guitarist Ross Harding has announced Chapter 1 of ‘The Blood & The Blues' 2024/2025 UK Tour Dates which will see him take his darker bluesy rock & roll sound throughout the UK in 2024 and 2025.
No Ross Harding live show is alike, with his musical skills and versatility being showcased in three unique formats: Solo Acoustic, Acoustic “Unplugged Band” and Electric Band. Much like John Mayer's 2008 release ‘Where The Light Is: Live In Los Angeles', this approach allows people to fully experience Ross Harding's songwriting, guitar talents and captivating stage presence.
Speaking about the tour, Ross Harding enthuses: “I am absolutely thrilled to be starting my first official tour in the UK since moving here in March 2024. The UK has been really welcoming so far, and I am keen to share my darker bluesy rock & roll with everyone.”
An acoustic blues rock musical experience, where Ross Harding performs mesmerizing original songs, with some unique renditions of cover songs that have been greatly influential in his music. He utilizes guitar effects pedals, alternately tuned guitars, slide guitar, and mastery of the “looper pedal” to sonically design an atmospheric and emotive performance that redefines and breathes new life into the traditional “solo acoustic” performance style. This show is a truly hypnotic musical experience for more intimate audiences.
An acoustic “unplugged” blues rock musical experience, where, with an excellent band, Ross Harding performs reimagined, mesmerizing original songs, with some unique renditions of cover songs that have been greatly influential in his music. This performance is for audiences who love a slightly more intimate and emotive musical presentation
For fans of “MTV's Unplugged”, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, acoustic music, blues & blues rock, and artists like Chris Cornell, Glenn Hughes / Black Country Communion & Myles Kennedy
Ross Harding Electric Band
An electric blues rock/hard rock musical experience, where, with an excellent band, Ross Harding performs original songs with one or two renditions of cover songs that have been greatly influential in his music. An unapologetic rock & roll experience for audiences who love high energy music, with interludes of slow blues and emotive musical mastery.
Ross has already hit the ground running on the UK live circuit opening for fellow blues-rock artist Dan Patlansky at Oran Mor in Glasgow, Scotland and The Cluny, Newcastle in April 2024. This was then followed by more solo acoustic performances supporting Rising American roots rock band Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast on their first headline UK Tour at The 1865 in Southampton.
