Blues star Ian Siegal bringing anniversary tour to Lichfield
The award-winning British bluesman Ian Siegal is marking his quarter-century anniversary of touring with a European tour, 38-song retrospective boxed set and 72-page lyric book.
Twenty-five years. Politically, socially, culturally, it's a lifetime. Ample time for a million bands to ignite and burn out, for a thousand fashions to blossom and wither.
As an artist in constant motion, Siegal has never been a man for backslaps and laps of honour. But in 2016, the British bluesman is toasting that milestone with a trademark burst of hyperactivity. In Autumn, the 2WENTY5IVE Tour will take him to 11 venues across the UK and 13 dates in mainland Europe - landing at The Guildhall in Lichfield on Saturday, November 19.
Siegal knows his stuff. He presides over a trophy haul that includes nine British Blues Awards, three European Blues Awards, two Mojo Blues Albums Of The Year awards and, on top of that, three US Blues Music Awards nominations – an unprecedented nod for a non-American.
