Dana Gillespie & the London Blues Band

About

“she literally beats the pants off anything done by a British bluesman these last 10 years” Dana Gillespie has been a major figure on the UK music scene for 55 years & counting. Starting on the folk circuit in the mid 60’s she graduated to pop before settling on the musical love of her life – the Blues, which she describes as “…my first musical love because it's earthy, spiritual and honest”. Since the late 70s she has been singing, recording and touring with blues musicians from all over the world, including a two-year stint in America working with some of the finest players in the industry. As evidence of the high esteem in which she’s held Dana was voted “Top British Female Blues Vocalist” by the British Blues Connection and Blueprint Magazine five times and has now been elevated to their Hall of Fame. Lately, Dana’s published her memoirs, ‘Weren’t Born a Man’ as well as hosting her own weekly YouTube show called ‘Globetrotting With Gillespie'.
