Event Description

Formed in March 2013, this ‘Brit’ Blues/Rock outfit continue to make a name for themselves with powerful/soulful performances of their original and atmospheric music.

Endorsed by Ian Gillan of Deep Purple and described as Guitar Driven, Signature Brand, Blues/Rock, Blacktop Deluxe have two full albums of original songs ‘Turn Up. Be Nice, Play Hard’ their debut album which reached No 4 in the Independent Blues Broadcasters Association Charts, followed by ‘Presence & Gain’ released to great acclaim and attaining nomination for ‘Emerging Artist’ in the 2015 British Blues Awards.

After countless miles of touring, playing alongside giants of their genre including Joe Bonamassa, Deep Purple, Wishbone Ash, Robin Trower and Walter Trout, the Band are very much looking forward to returning to The Acorn (one of their favourite venues) to once again perform songs from their 2 Albums, 2 EP’s and 4 singles plus a selection from ‘That’s The Vibe’ and also delve into the Blue on Black, back catalogue.

Otto

They will be joined once again by their great friend, ‘Otto’, a fabulous singer/songwriter and performer in his own right.

With two critically acclaimed albums already released, Otto is a seasoned performer with rock and blues roots and influences ranging from Johnny Winter, The Allman Brothers Band and of course Blacktop Deluxe.

His performance last year was widely acclaimed by all who witnessed it and included an impromptu number where he was joined on stage by the guys of Blacktop for a great version of the Johnny Winter classic ‘Barefootin’.

So, if you like your Blues Rocked and your Rock Bluesed, this will be an evening of not to be missed.
