WITH SUPPORT FROM QUEEN BISCUIT
‘Queen Biscuit’ is a Blues and Roots duo formed of guitarist Ben Carr & drummer Lucy Piper. Whilst both based in the South West, their sounds come from a much farther place: the Mississippi Delta & its ‘Hill Country’ area, where both have spent time soaking up the music & culture. Lucy has recently worked with artists on blues record label Ruf Records, and learnt her trade playing with her blues musician father Julian Piper.
Venue: Marine Theatre
