BLUES JAM NIGHTRICHARD STEELE, master of tone and feel, and a guitarist who delivers expressive playing that speaks louder than words. From blues-soaked lines to soaring melodic runs, his performances are full of nuance and dynamics with a deep musical connection.
A co-founder and guitarist for legendary rhythm and blues band 'Whose Muddy Shoes', Richard has since toured and recorded as a solo artist, with his trio and with artists such as Anni Piper, Dorothy Jane Gosper and Ali Penny to name a few, playing venues and festivals from Queensland to Tasmania where he now lives.
Richard's influences come from the old schools of blues, jazz, western swing and country which he mixes into his unique style. This is showcased in his original tunes, both instrumental and sung and shines on his latest album “SEVEN”.
Richard is joined for this MBAS show by the killer rhythm section of ROGER TATTERSALL on bass and GARY EVANS on drums, both of whom feature with Richard on the album “SEVEN” and perform regularly as The Richard Steele Trio.
