After opening last year’s Orkney Blues Festival supporting Northsyde, the D-Chords are back and ready for another great weekend.

Their line-up remains singer Lorraine McBrearty, guitars by John Pettigrew and Andrew Want, and the four on the floor rhythm section of bassist Pete Nicol and drummer Dave Stevenson. Expect an arousing set of numbers exploring the blues canon…

About

Orkney Blues was established in 2006 to develop and maintain a first class Blues Festival in the Orkney Islands. The committee is made up of local artists and blues enthusiasts and is supported by local businesses.

Orkney Blues has grown since then and we look forward to our biggest festival yet in 2011.
