Part of Isle of Arts Festival 2015

Electric Chicago Blues from The Medina Delta....

The MoonShiners are a four piece Rhythm & Blues band hailing from the deep south of The Isle of Wight.

Fusing together influences from the Chicago blues of Muddy Waters / Little Walter to the Folk-Rock-Americana of Bob Dylan & The Band, The MoonShiners deliver a strong set of good-time music.

Fronted by Dave Hollis on vocals/blues-harp/guitar, with Adi Charlton guitars/vocals and a solid rhythm section of Tim Hollis; bass and Rich Wilson; drums, the band regularly play the Island's pub/club circuit as well as festivals such as Wolverton Folk & Blues Fair, The Rhythm Tree Festival, V-Dub Festival and Cowes Week. Other notable performances have included support slots to touring blues artists such as Eugene 'Hideaway' Bridges, Papa George and Ian Siegal.

Come and enjoy some fine R&B as a warm-up to The Mud Morganfield Band later in the evening.
