Fusing a mix of blistering alt rock to the hallowed stomp & swagger of classic Chicago Blues, Giles Robson & The Dirty Aces’ raw & visceral sound is being hailed as the most exciting new discovery to break out the blues world today. With an untamed squall that echoes The Black Keys and dark gothic lyrical imagery of Nick Cave delivered with a Jagger sneer, Giles Robson and his band are primed to burst onto the main stages of the UK – as illustrated by their debut single being championed on national radio by BBC Radio 2 & 6’s Paul Jones, Tom Robinson and Chris Evans.
‘PILEDRIVING GRITTY ROADHOUSE BELTERS. THERE ARE ELEMENTS HERE OF THE FALL’ – BLABBER’N’SMOKE
Be it the nihilistic junkyard rattle of ‘The Mighty Incinerator’ or their latest single, the distorted bass lead howl of ‘Ain’t Dead Yet’, Giles Robson & The Dirty Aces channel the energy of their increasingly fearsome live reputation into these records perfectly.
How?
Every track on the album is a live take. No Autotune. No studio tricks. This is a talented fledgling new band on incredible form playing exciting, inventive new UK Blues. Formed out of the grimy underground of the British blues scene, Giles Robson & The Dirty Aces have recently toured extensively around the UK and Europe, honing their explosive live show night after night. With a band who have played onstage with Robert Plant, Jeff Beck, Van Morrison, Jimmy Page and Mick Fleetwood to mention a few, this is an act that knows how blow audiences away.
