Simply The Blues at St. Andrews Auditorium, Mumbai

With a groove like none other, the blues are back this winter. After a successful debut in 2012, India`s pioneer Blues festival, Simply The Blues is back with its second edition, featuring legendary British singer, song writer, and blues musician Dana Gillespie with acclaimed boogie-woogie pianist Joachim Palden on a twin city tour- Bangalore and Mumbai. Queen of The Blues, Dana Gillespie has performed with music legends Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Ian Siegal. Blues fans in Mumbai and Bangalore are in for a treat, as the boogie-woogie style of Dana is pure energy. With a vocal mastery that has been her calling from the time she performed in the original Andrew Lloyd Webber opera “Jesus Christ Superstar“ on London`s Westend, she has audiences shouting for more. They always say in the Blues business that to really play a great boogie you need a `left hand like God` and Joachim has such hands! Joachim carries on the blues legacy of legendary pianists Otis Spann and Roosevelt Sykes. Grab your tickets, cause Dana is gonna make you “Shake That Boogie”
