Fresh from the fryer of the UK’s Deep South. A random encounter between two maniacle blues enthusiasts and the seeds for SFGQ’s were sown.
Southern Fried Groove Queens are a Mississippi Hill Country/Delta Blues duo, with Lee Hall on Guitar/Vocals (Datura Roots Collective) & renowned Blues drummer Lucy Piper, daughter of the late Blues musician, Julian Piper ‘one of the UK’s foremost champions of African-American blues’ – The Guardian.
Cooked to perfection using a traditional recipe passed down through generations, we provide that heavy heart thumping kick and grooves that will make you want to move.
The duo play their take on the likes of old blues masters: RL Burnside, John Lee Hooker, Robert Johnson and many more. The band formed in 2021, and have already played at several of the UK’s leading Blues and Jazz festivals, taking audiences by storm.
With Lee’s haunting vocals and energetic slide playing, and Lucy’s infectious hypnotic drumming, this is a band not to be missed. Be prepared to ‘juke’ with them!
