Roger Sutcliffe

There isn't much of information on this British blues guitar player and singer to be found. He's not to be found on the big stages, but plays at pubs and the like. Yet he's an oldschooler in the best sense of the word - his style of playing the guitar is nothing but amazing, due to about 40 years of experience. It's classic blues performed perfectly and with great passion.
Some scraps of information and a list of released albums can be found at Folker (German language only, sorry).

Mike Doughty

Mike Doughty (born June 10, 1970, in Fort Knox, Kentucky) is an American indie and alternative rock singer-songwriter and author. The former frontman of Soul Coughing barely sounds like his former self. Doughty began writing solo songs in 1995, but nothing materialized until Soul Coughing broke up in 2000, at which point Doughty began touring solo with his acoustic guitar after becoming clean and sober. Skittish was finally released to the masses along with the EP Rockity Roll on the ATO record label.

The Maffa Kings

An incredible band that have been packing out venues as a headliner but also as support for new York’s glint and London’s band of skulls. The Maffa Kings consistently entrance audiences with their bare-knuckle take on rock. Born from the industrial mecca of the midlands in england, The Maffa Kings create an awe inspiring, pseudo-southern, rocked-up, dark fusion of soul, reggae, grunge, metal and funk.

Led Zeppelin

Led Zeppelin were an English rock band originally formed in 1968 by guitarist Jimmy Page under the name "The New Yardbirds", based on Page's previous band, The Yardbirds. The band formed when Jimmy Page (guitar) recruited Robert Plant (vocals, harmonica), John Paul Jones (bass guitar, keyboards, mandolin), and John Bonham (drums). With their heavy, guitar-driven blues-rock sound, Led Zeppelin are regularly cited as one of the progenitors of heavy metal and hard rock music. However, the band's individualistic style drew from many sources and transcends any one genre.

The Lees

The Lees are a family band: dad - Steve; mum - Tracey; and their 4 kids - Raechel (19), Jarod (18), Faith (15) and Savannah (12). The Lees began around 11 years ago. After playing in many different bands and finding no satisfaction, Steve Lee decided that the only way to go about it was to use what already had - a wife and four kids. Steve and his wife Tracey were sitting at a Dead Ringer Band Concert one night in their hometown of Broken Hill when he turned to Tracey and said, "that looks like a good way to make a living… Wanna do that?".

Current Swell

The members of Current Swell no longer live together under a single roof — as they did years ago,
when the group first came together as a unit — but the bond between the four friends is stronger than
ever. Touring the world for the better part of five years, from Brazil to Australia, often has that effect. Current Swell’s years of experience on the road can be heard — and felt — in the nooks and crannies
