Italy's top blues band - Family Style - will be in the UK in April:
Quote:
"... and the stage was set for an absolute belter of a gig. Much of their material is original and covers a huge range of styles: funk, Chicago blues, shuffles, New Orleans style beats, cool jazzy stuff, summat for everyone really. Franco Limido was great on harp and vocals, imagine a singing Paul Lamb and you'll get the idea! The bass/drum backline were Dog's Bollocks candidates and the band was fun to watch, too, with some inspired clowning on "Crazy Legs". " - Dave Kingsbury from the Running Horse, Nottingham's website (2004).
"These guys sound as if they've lived every teardrop and heartbreak. Of special note is Franco. His harp is the natural extension of his vocals, which have pure passion hanging on every word. And what about Marco's guitar----spine tingling! Blue Flame has done it again. Simply Great." - LEE COTTEN - ROCK AND BLUES NEWS, USA DECEMBER 1999
