  • I had a great time recording for blues artist Alex Carter last month, and Alex’s new single ‘Blue Boy’ is out now on all digital platforms – including Spotify, Amazon and Apple Music.

    All the drums and organ parts for ‘Blue Boy’ were recorded ‘remotely’ here at my studio, before the track was mixed by record producer Chris Barwise.

    I’m really happy with the overall sound and vibe I achieved in the studio – capturing Alex’s ‘raw, classic blues sound’ inspired by artists like The Stones, Chuck Berry and John Lee Hooker – and I am proud to have contributed to this record.

  • I’ve had the privilege of recording both drums and organs on a new single from blues singer/songwriter Alex Carter in my studio this weekend.

    With a super cool, groovy blues vibe, I have really enjoyed getting stuck into this session and getting the tone and feel of the song just right – both in my playing and in the choice of cymbals and studio techniques. Plus the session was also another great opportunity to run organs through my vintage Sharma 2000 rotary cab, which is always very exciting!

    Keep an eye out for the finished single being released soon. I can’t wait for everyone to hear it!

  • It may have been made eighteen months ago… But the inaugural Jamie Roe Band EP – ‘Reach For The Tide’ – is finally available online!

    I am contributing piano, organs and backing vocals on all four songs.

    I’m very excited to be playing drums on a gig with the Jimmy Roe Trio, and hooking up with my good friend and ex-Cardiem guitarist Jimmy on stage again. I can’t wait to jam with Jimmy again, and to play the blues once more!

    The gig itself is on Saturday 2nd February, at The Flowerpot in Derby, and is supporting well-known blues guitarist Ron Sayer Jr.
