TREMAINE DAWKINS – LOVE ALBUM TOUR

THR3E

With a style firmly rooted in 60s/70s British blues but with influences ranging widely from the old blues originals to more recent US and British rock & blues, along with a smattering of Americana & Southern boogie, Thr3e do not try to fit into any ‘genre’.

They just write great songs about what happens in their world and play them from the heart

Vince Taylor

“Not all my songs are silly” claims singer-songwriter Vince Taylor despite singing about dead cats, trips to Venus and the dangers of rucksacks

Other outlandish claims include being the inspiration for Ziggy Stardust (no, that was the other Vince Taylor), being the first punk in West Somerset and performing on the same bill as The Clash, Chas and Dave and Def Leppard during his many years in music

Catch this immodest but very tall man with his guitar and decide what to believe
