After winning ‘Best Band’ and ‘Best Album’ at the British Blues Awards 2011, 22 year-old British guitar sensation Oli Brown returns to the UK for his biggest headline tour to date in April 2012.
Described by music magazine Mojo as “the hottest young pistol in British Blues,” Oli has been almost constantly on the road with tours across Europe, America, Canada and New Zealand. In 2008 he released his debut album ‘Open Road’ to critical acclaim. Last year he released his second record ‘Heads I Win, Tails You Lose’, which earned him his first Glastonbury appearance. The album was produced by Mike Vernon (Fleetwood Mac, Eric Clapton), who came out of retirement especially to work with Oli, after hearing his Brown’s debut effort.
Upon release, Heads I Win Tails You Lose garnered much support, with Mojo and Classic Rock naming the album as their #4 and #3 Blues albums of 2010 respectfully. Following the dates with John Mayall, Oli will head into the studio to work on an as-yet-untitled third album, set for an April 2012 release to coincide with his UK tour.
