Arthur Lea's Bootleg Trio
Arthur Lea's Bootleg Trio at 606 Club, London
About the show
Well known here at the Club as the former keyboardist/singer with the ever-popular Coalminers, Arthur Lea combines eclectic rhythm and blues with New Orleans southern soul. He has played everywhere from Ronnie Scott’s to the Olympic Stadium, with everyone from Kate Tempest to Kylie Minogue and has recorded in studios from Nashville to Berlin. The trio also features Chris Barrett-tuba & fellow Coalminer Pat Levett-drums/harmonica. Arthur now lives in the US so this is a rare chance to catch him live in the UK.
“Arthur Lea…a great singer and songwriter…fantastic” Evening Standard
