It's about time we had another band in our 'Introducing ......' feature and today we're delighted to showcase Spanish Rock and Roll band Queen Bitch who were formed five years ago. Their music is a mixture of genuine American Rock and Roll with Blues, Soul and Country music, giving an original, energetic and unique live performance on stage as today's 'Video Of The Day' testifies. In 2012 they released their debut album 'Come Hell Or High Water' and their second album 'The Soul Salvation' is due to be released shortly - further exploring the deep fusion of sounds of Queen Bitch!

Remember we told you about our T.Rextasy Charity gig being up in lights at Charlton's football ground a couple of weeks ago? Well it's exactly half a year today till Wrinklystock 4 at The Mick Jagger Centre, Dartford, on Saturday 21st November. Not only that - but as of Monday over half the tickets had already been sold! Remember T.Rextasy (our Vid Of The Day) are the only band that is accepted as the world’s only official live tribute band dedicated to Marc Bolan & T.Rex - and the only band endorsed and approved by Marc Bolan’s family, estate, original ex-members of T.Rex and Bolan’s catalogue management! It's going to be be a sell out just like last year so don't miss out and get your tickets here!

Our Skynyrd 'I Need You' YouTube vid received over 300 hits yesterday and received favourable comments such as "fantastic/gig night and great video!" Anyway go to our Video Vault if you haven't seen the vid already and if anyone has a vid of 'Simple Man' please contact us below.

We recently received the following tweet: "@WRINKLYCLUB Thx for the follow! Kat & Co new single CALLING YOUR NAME#londonUK" Consequently we are delighted to include American blues vocalist, Kathleen (Kat) Pearson as today's 'Track Of The Day'! Yes Kat & Co. is the latest artist to be showcased in our 'Introducing ...' feature - a vibrant collaboration between Kat, guitarist Francesco Accurso and pianist Federico Parodi with Ettore Virgillito on bass and Nicholas Owsianka on drums. Between them they have created a contemporary image to The Blues with an authentic personal sound that creates an infectious energy that enthralls their audiences.

If you can't make Larry Miller's gig at the Borderline in London tonight then do not despair! Yes Larry is returning to scene of his 2013 Bluesfest triumph at The Red Lion, Gravesend, on Saturday 29th August - ticketing details to follow. Not only that but the impressive Loose Moorings will also be returning to support Larry on the bill. Larry's opener at Bluesfest 2013 'Still Ain't Done With The Blues' is our Video Of The Day and if there is a better opener than this to a set out there then we have not seen it! Oh yes - the DVD/CD is still available for sale here. Enjoy!

Mostly underground for years as a secret songwriter - Kaz Hawkins (who lives just a few streets from East Belfast’s most famous musical son Van Morrison) is now established as one the biggest singers ever to come out of Northern Ireland. Called 'A Vocal Force' on stage, she envelops the fighting spirit of a true powerhouse singer. With comparisons to her idol Etta James, Mavis Staples and Janis Joplin - Kaz is the latest in our 'Introducing ...' feature and is also our 'Video Of The Day'! Loved for her down to earth attitude - Kaz brings fun to every performance and is loved not only by her fans but anyone who meets her! She has lived and sang 'The Blues' but has much more to offer across different genres in her song writing - so is now embarking on an exciting mix of genres that she has written for her debut album ‘Get Ready‘.

Well that's what the David Sinclair Four tweeted the WRC yesterday following our report on their gig at The Borderline on Thursday 14th May! We also had another tweet from BluesRockfest's The Rainbreakers (pictured) following the recent release of our WRC gigs Wrinklycast - "@WRINKLYCLUB can't wait to come down to you on 15th May to support @TheMentulls and then Gravesend Blues Rock Fest!" Remember to follow us on Twitter here if you can or alternatively on Facebook here!

.... and we're not talking about Richard Dunning either! So it's Tuesday and not only will Richard be broadcasting his 'Blues On The Radio' Croydon Radio show today at 5pm but he will also be welcoming Bad Influence to the Tuesday Night Music Club later that evening! Duo Richard Hayes and Valerie Cowell formed Bad Influence nearly 30 years ago and have honed their craft by constant touring in support of six critically acclaimed albums. Having played such legendary venues as The Marquee and The 100 Club and as chosen support on a tour with Status Quo, Bad Influence have definitely paid their 'dues'. They are now considered by many to be one of the top acts in their field, delivering their sound of powerful vocals alongside classic guitar driven rock solid blues. Also watch out for BOTR as our 'Track Of The Day' later this week.
