PARCHMAN FARM
http://www.myspace.com/parchmanfarmbluesband
With a wealth of experience behind them backing and supporting major Blues acts including Jimmy Rogers, Joe Louis Walker, Robben Ford, and Phil Guy to name but a few, Parchman Farm have notched up a string of credits to their name. Performing on the main stages of many major European blues Festivals including the Lillehammer Blues Festival in Norway, Utrecht Blues Festival in the Netherlands, Jedburgh Festival in Scotland, and appearing no less than three times on the prestigious International stage at the Great British Rhythm and Blues Festival, Parchman Farm are without doubt one of Ireland’s most traveled and well-known blues bands abroad. Parchman Farm’s sound is a far cry from the heavy rock style that often passes for blues this side of the Atlantic, so if you want to hear a band whose music is firmly rooted in the true tradition of the blues and played straight from the heart, this is the band for you.
