ONE of the most eagerly anticipated acts at this year's Bowness Bay Blues Weekend will be the Sean Webster Band, who are to top the bill at The Wheelhouse on the Saturday.
 

Sean will also be running a singing and songwriting workshop the next day.
Sean Webster is a guitarist, vocalist and songwriter with a great reputation on the British blues and rock scene.
 

Their 2004 debut album, 'Long Time Coming', put The Sean Webster Band in the public eye for the first time, and was described by Blues Matters magazine as 'a real gem'.
 

The album showcased Sean's fine guitar playing (influenced by Albert Collins, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Gary Moore and Stevie Ray Vaughan among others) and his rich vocal tone with low-end rumble, reminiscent of Joe Cocker, Bryan Adams and Jonny Lang.
 

Sean has been living in Australia for the last year, but - to the delight of European blues fans - he's now resident in Holland and will be touring in the UK this Spring.
 

The Bowness Bay Blues Weekend takes place from April 11-13.
