SIMON KINNY-LEWIS is one of the new breed of Blues guitarists making his mark worldwide. He takes the audience with him on a seismic journey of compelling Blues guitar – along with a voice that Steve Lukather (guitarist Toto, Michael Jackson, Ringo Starr) describes as being similar to American Blues star Joe Bonnamassa.

Simon’s own original brand of contemporary Blues and Rock has created a loyal fan-base of guitar enthusiasts around the globe. He has performed and recorded with highly regarded musicians such as Chris Cain, Anton Davidyants, Nate Ginsberg (Herbie Hancock’s band), Christian Howes, Simeon Cain (Henry Rollins Band) and many more. He has produced 6 albums to date with his debut acoustic Blues solo album “Catfish” reaching #1 on the Australian Blues and Roots Airplay Charts. His debut SKL Band album “Bad Whisky” has also been released featuring Australian Guitar Legend Brett Garsed (John Farnham).

Simon is a regular performer at Australia’s biggest festivals including The Australian Blues Music Festival, Thredbo Blues Fest, Sydney Guitar Show, Gympie Muster, Manly Jazz Fest, Tamworth Country Music Festival, Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival, Bluestone Blues – and many more. He has performed countless shows in California (2017/2018) with US Blues legend Chris Cain and with Chris' band Dwayne Pate (Robben Ford, Steve Lukather), Nate Ginsburg (Herbie Hancock) and Tony Boyd (SKL Band). His most recent recording is a brand new Blues album “A Day In San Jos ” featuring his Californian Band due for release in 2019.

Unfortunately, LARKIN POE have had to cancel tonight's scheduled live guest appearance at the MBAS House of Blues.

From Larkin Poe's Manager:
"I'm so sorry to have to be the bearer of bad news, but unfortunately Rebecca and Megan after four solid days of gigs and promo, coupled with a lack of sleep, are both losing their voices. We will therefore have to forgo attending your MBAS event this evening. We are all deeply disappointed to have to do this – the girls are consummate professionals and hate cancelling anything, but to attempt to do it would mean putting the next few shows in jeopardy, and we obviously can't do that. I do appreciate your understanding."
