(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/bluesmatters1/bluesmatters.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114One of the earliest of British<\/strong> blues bands, Savoy Brown<\/strong>, with founder guitarist Kim Simmonds<\/strong> at the helm, helped launch the 1967 UK<\/strong> blues boom<\/strong> movement that brought blues music back to the USA<\/strong> invigorating the style forever. In the process, the band became part of the framework that launched the rock and roll music of the 1970s<\/strong>. Their influence now stretches into modern rock as we know it today.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n With over 50<\/strong> years of rocking the blues they return with City Night<\/strong>\u00a0– their 40th<\/strong> album – which will be released on Friday 7th June 2019<\/strong> via Quarto Valley<\/strong> Records<\/strong> (distributed by Proper<\/strong>).<\/p>\n On the back of a number one Billboard<\/strong> blues hit in 2017<\/strong>, expectations are high for this new band offering. The album features Kim Simmonds<\/strong> on vocals and searing lead guitar and he is complemented with the most consistent line-up in the band\u2019s history, going strong for more than 10 years<\/strong> now with\u00a0Pat<\/strong> DeSalvo<\/strong>\u00a0on bass and\u00a0Garnet Grimm<\/strong>\u00a0on drums.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n City Night<\/strong> is comprised of 12 high energy blues rock songs to surely please the worldwide fan base. “Walking On Hot Stones<\/strong>“, \u201cPayback Time<\/strong>” and “Don’t Hang Me Out To Dry<\/strong>” will catch the attention of radio DJ’s<\/strong> looking for the fresh new sound Savoy Brown<\/strong> brings to roots music.<\/p>\n Savoy Brown<\/strong>\u00a0was formed by guitarist\u00a0Kim Simmonds<\/strong>\u00a0in 1965<\/strong> in London<\/strong>, England<\/strong>. Simmonds<\/strong> has been the group\u2019s guiding hand from the first singles released in 1966<\/strong> through the band\u2019s newest effort, their fortieth album.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Energetic blues has been the calling card of the band from the beginning. \u201cBlues-rock<\/strong>\u201d became the catch-all phrase in the late 1960s<\/strong> to describe the band\u2019s music along with that of contemporaries such as Cream<\/strong>, Fleetwood Mac<\/strong> and Jimi Hendrix<\/strong>. In fact, in the 2013<\/strong> drama film, Jimi Hendrix<\/strong>: All Is By<\/strong> My Side<\/strong>, a Savoy Brown<\/strong> song co-written by Simmonds<\/strong> was included in the soundtrack.<\/p>\n Many of the band\u2019s singles and albums have appeared on the Billboard<\/strong> charts. Through the 1960s<\/strong>, 1970s<\/strong> and 1980\u2019s<\/strong> songs such as\u00a0I\u2019m Tired<\/strong>,\u00a0Train to Nowhere<\/strong>,\u00a0Tell Mama<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Lay Back\u00a0In The<\/strong> Arms\u00a0Of Someone<\/strong>\u00a0became Hot 100<\/strong> entries.<\/p>\n
