Inspired by Big Bill Broonzy, Rambling Jack Elliot, Alexis Korner and Ewan MacColl, learning his craft from the likes of Davy Graham and Long John Baldry in the coffee bars of London's Soho during the late fifties, busking through Europe with Rod Stewart and cited by John Renbourn and Eric Clapton as an important early influence. With his unique acoustic guitar style, an eclectic repertoire and a 'right hand worthy of Broonzy' Wizz continues to tour on the acoustic folk and blues circuit - usually solo but sometimes together with son Simeon on Sax, Flute and Harmonica. Hope to see you there! venue info: Hoopers Bar , 28 Ivanhoe Rd , London SE5 , Jan 30th , 8.30pm FREE . ( Wizz and Simeon first set at 9pm ) |
