Hans Theessink – special guest artist

22nd October
Louisa's Place, 4A St. Marys Road, Market Harborough, LE16 7DU

After more than 50 years on the road and with 30 albums, an instruction video, a songbook and a DVD to his name,Hans Theessink is a roots and blues institution. With his sonorous baritone voice and unmistakable guitar work, Hans is in great demand as he tours Europe, Britain, North-America, Australia and New Zealand. And we have the pleasure of welcoming him to Harborough Blues all the way from Vienna!

Acclaimed as a master of the Delta/Piedmont roots blues styles, Hans Theessink brings power and energy to his performances. His slide and fingerpicking virtuosity are respected among the elite. In the midst of his booming baritone voice and boot stomps, Hans will delight with a feather-delicate string caress, or astound with a blistering rhythmic romp on the frets. The US blues press called him "An international blues treasure" and "One of the world's pre-eminent pickers". And the legendary Bo Diddley called him "One helluva guitar player. Book early for this event as it will sell out very quickly!
