The Whisky Drought - Blues from the muddy banks of the Wansbeck
About the Drought
The Whisky Drought is the sound of one man wrestling with the blues in all its forms — from the haunted whispers of the Delta to the roaring crunch of modern electric. Based in North East England, playing the music that moves me, hoping to move you too. I write, perform and produce all my own music. Pulling influence from the greats — Robert Johnson, B.B. King, Freddie King, Albert King — and channeling the fire of Eric Clapton, Peter Green, and Slash.
New music is coming regularly, and is available on all streaming and download platforms. Follow The Whisky Drought on your preferred platform to keep up to date.

Moonlight on the Murderpath is a heavy dark blues song, inspired by the Border Reivers of the Anglo-Scottish border region that I call home, and the origins of the name of my hometown. The B-side is an instrumental inspired by a local landmark with a grim history.
