Formed in the late 1980's as a vehicle for Jon's self penned songs, the Boogie Band
gigged extensively for a few years, but then unfortunately disbanded. The band reformed
in 1999 and our first CD 'The Inevitable' was a culmination of a project they had
talked about for a long time, consisting of songs from the early days of the band
to the present. This was followed in 2001 by 'Calm Before The Storm'. Guests on
this album include:
Snake Davis: Soprano Sax
Jaqueline Gorman: Vocals
Nigel Neil: Keyboards / Electric Percussion
Although primarily performing their own brand of material, the band also interpret
some classic rock songs in their own style including Pat Travers, Joe Satriani and
Jeff Healey.
The band can regularly be seen in the East Anglia area headlining many festivals
and performing on the local and national rock circuit. The Harley Davidson 100th
year celebrations at Littleport in 2003 saw the band supporting such acts as The
Hamsters and The Groundhogs and brought them particular recognition from an energetic
and powerful set.
As musicians, the band members are very busy with other projects and more recently
have dedicated many of the Boogie Band gigs to fund raising for the British Heart
Foundation and Sue Ryder Care.
Jon and Dave can also be found playing in
Secret Green - 14th Century Spinal Tap
