Staffordshire blues-rock outfit, Climax Blues Band hit the charts with "Couldn’t Get it Right" back in the ‘seventies, and continue to regularly tour, playing to capacity audiences in the UK and Europe. They have a series of US and Caribbean shows in 2023, before their welcome return to the Jam House!
Climax are soon to release another new album, following up on their "Hands of Time" an album of brand new material which reached No. 3 in the UK Blues chart in 2019.
The six-piece band includes the bedrock rhythm unit of Roy Adams (drums) and Neil Simpson (bass), who have been with the band for over 30 years, Climax veteran George Glover on keyboards as band leader, the dynamic Chris "Beebe" Aldridge on sax and the ‘new blood’ of creative guitarist Dan Machin.
A new chapter of Climax Blues Band is here, creating new music, flying that flag in 2023, moving forwards, blending the old with the new, and loving making the music they love.
Hare & Hounds
Most gigs, if not all, of the Saturday Blues Club from 4pm are free but please check with the venue about tickets and pricing before.
Situated in the South Birmingham suburb of Kings Heath, the Hare & Hounds has been around since 1820, but has stood in its present form since 1907. This is a major contributing factor to its current Grade II listed status, along with the beautiful and unique Art Nouveau tiles that line the entry hall and staircase.
Although playing host to local Birmingham legends UB40’s first ever gig in 1979, it is only since 2007 that it’s really established itself as one of the most important and influential music venues in the country, playing a vital part in nurturing the city’s vibrant music and creative community.
The pub boasts two downstairs bars which host a weekly pub quiz on Wednesdays, the hugely popular Blues Club on Saturday afternoons, comedy workshops and more. The two famous upstairs venues feature live music & club nights spanning jazz, indie, funk, reggae, hip hop, soul, house, techno, drum & bass and beyond.
