Blues, Beck and The Brits

Hello again,

Sandy here with my 2nd blog (I'm slowly getting use to this blogging non sense) Over the past few weeks I've been gigging, teaching and working away on the second edition of Blues Legacy which is all very exiting. I've also been knocking up some 'Country style' backing tracks which should be available to purchase from the SpyTunes Shop tomorrow - The package currently has about 14 tracks ranging from up tempo Bluegrass to Shania Twain-esque tracks! They were great fun to record (90% of it uses live musicians) so I hope they are of use and fun to play and practice over.

Next week I'm off to the Brits which I'm really looking forward to (The Brits is basically the UK's answer to the Grammy's!) Here's hoping I'll meet some top musical types :-)

My band Stars & Sons go on tour in February with Screaming Maldini which I'm really looking forward to. Those of you in the UK, the dates are:

February 21st - Sheffield - The Grapes

February 22nd - London - The Old Blue Last

February 23rd - Brighton - The Albert

February 24th - Northampton - The Labour Club

February 25th - Oxford - The Cellar

On a final note, some footage of Jeff Beck and myself jamming has recently emerged on Youtube so thought you would like a little look:

Happy playing

-Sandy
