Kim Simmonds & Savoy Brown

Lancaster Roots & Blues RETURNS - Friday, Saturday & Sunday, Sept 27, 28 & 29

Legendary British Blues

Legendary…a blues/rock institution…true innovators. These are just a few of the ways Savoy Brown has been described over the past fifty years by music critics and fans.

One of the earliest of British blues bands, Savoy Brown, with founder guitarist Kim Simmonds at the helm, helped launch the 1967 UK blues boom movement that brought blues music back to the USA invigorating the style forever. In the process, the band became part of the framework that launched the rock and roll music of the 1970’ s. Their influence now stretches into modern rock as we know it today.
