Son of Dave Tickets

Former Crash Test Dummies guitarist/mandolin player Benjamin Darvill is Son of Dave. He brings the Blues kicking and howling into the 21st Century without thievery or pretension, creating sweet Devil music with just his bare lips and hands.

It starts with a beat box amplified by an old Astatic microphone, the harmonica follows and with a stomp of the foot a husky loop is captured. As the loop grinds away his vocal starts low and almost spoken whilst the harmonica sings and a groaning bass-line drops.

A true bluesman Son Of Dave sings from the heart, bitter words of women, ditties of Hellhounds and tales of the good ol’ Hollywood lifestyle. As the songs build he screams and howls the vocals between blazing harmonica solos and muttered obscenities.

Son of Dave has made his wishes and ambitions known. He wants to make grown men cry, be better than the White Stripes, scare off guitar driven dullness and make sweet Devil music that no-one can resist.
