After great success at Buccaneers Bar with The Moon jazz and Blues club, we want to start a full blown blues club meeting every second Thursday of the month, starting in June. This will only help with your support, if people don't come, it won't work. So please help us by sharing on Facebook and promoting the nights. The biggest thing of all, is to come to the evenings. Crediton is nearly bang in
the middle of Devon. We have a budget of £0! So, the £3 on the door is a charge we are making so we can have funds to support promotion, pay for a drink for the house band members and use to save, so we can start booking blues acts on occasion and be able to secure their fee, no profit is going to be made by the organizers. The only money to be made will be by Buccaneers bar by drinks sales. We are currently looking for musicians to join our list to be in the house band and/or spares when others can't make it. We will buy you all a drink and if the nights start to become successful, petrol money too. Please message or email, if you are interested. We are looking for singers, guitar players, bass players, drummers, harp players, keyboard players, brass players and anyone else who think they can jam some blues. All that we ask for is that you're fairly confident at jamming blues, as the band won't often get the chance to rehearse. The jazz nights get 50- 100 people attend, so we are looking at trying to get those kind of numbers, if not more (180 capacity). Future plans would consist of more blues nights than just the monthly's, with bands. Possibly a Crediton Blues festival, but that rides only on the success of the Blues House, no audience, none of it will be possible. If you have a blues band and are interested in putting on your own shows at Buccaneers Bar not on a Blues House night, we'd be happy to help promote it and put the Blues House name to it, if you wanted. As said Buccaneers Bar do get a sizeable audience for their jazz nights, so we're happy to put you in touch with the powers that be and get that gig booked for you, Their terms are different to The Blues House evenings, so you'll need to find out from Buccaneers Bar.
