"The hottest young pistol in British Blues" - Mojo
After winning 'Best Band' and 'Best Album' at the prestigious British Blues
Awards 2011, 22 year old British guitar sensation Oli Brown will return to
the UK in April 2012 for his biggest headline tour to date.
Since the release of his 2010 album "Heads I Win Tails You Lose", Oli has been
almost constantly on the road with tours across Europe, America, Canada and
New Zealand. The album was produced by Mike Vernon (Fleetwood Mac, Eric
Clapton), who came out of retirement especially to work with Oli, after
hearing his debut album, "Open Road".
"Heads I Win Tails You Lose" garnered much critical acclaim,
with Mojo and Classic Rock naming the album as their #4 and #3 Blues albums
of 2010 respectfully.
Following his November 2011 dates with John Mayall, Oli will be heading into
the studio to work on an as-yet-untitled new album, which is set for an
April 2012 release to coincide with the UK tour.
