Thrilled to bits, we agreed and just a week or so ago we received a lovely box of CDs from the USA with copies of the comps. Entitled "The Sounds of Gasoline" each volume contains some killer stuff. Rock n Roll, Blues, even alt country and of course yours truly. If you fancy something that you'll be hard pressed to find in HMV I reckon you should try these. They're full of rock solid musical bombs and with 21 tracks for £9.99 plus £1 postage worldwide its got to be worth a punt. Go to our website and check them out http://www.thebonnevilles.net/ BANDWIDTH FILMS The very, very talented folks at Bandwidth have asked to film us for their In-Stores series, where they film bands in unusual places and stripped way down, in our case its looking like in a butchers shop in Belfast.

If you want to come down and have a nosey and maybe even get your facog on celluloid, we'll give you location as soon as we know it, it would be great to see a few faces. we're going to be playing another brand new song called "Hell". Finally we got ourselves a new Tee shirt, available on pre-order, we're only picking these up in Scotland on the 11th of Feb so if you want to buy one we'll post it immediately when we return home. They've got the very very cool design by Ben Lyons featuring the The Bonnevilles mascot Blackbeards Jolly Roger. It will make you look cooler than you do already.

likes of Richard Thompson, and John Butler, on UK tour to
promote acclaimed 16th album ‘Half Seas Over’. The album was originally released in Australia in 2008. No doubt tracks from his 2009 album release 'Chimeradour' will also feature. A virtuoso guitarist with an achingly sweet voice and hypnotic performance style, Jeff Lang has carved out a unique niche for his compelling and continually evolving music transcending the boundaries of traditional folk, blues, country and other roots music. Over the past decade, Lang has built an international reputation and a loyal fan base with constant touring in the US, Europe and Australia. He is a favourite on the festival circuit and has enjoyed national airplay, rave reviews, multiple ARIA nominations and the respect of his peers around the world.

Fri, 13 November 2009  No U.S. blues band has made a sustained tour of London in-- well, no one seems to be able to remember. But Kilborn Alley Blues Band are doing it, starting next week--Tuesday 17 November, kicking off at Effra Hall in Brixton. The idea is to infest the place, to soak in all that guitar blues that comes from Britain. We are real proud of the pubs we have been able to put together for this tour. The venues include Effra Hall which is an amazing jazz and reggae venue in the little West Indies that is Brixton, Moors Bar is a gem in Crouch End with one of the coolest owners in all of tavern-dom the world over, The Globe has an incredible blues jam scene in Hackney lead by John Parry and his band, The Oval features Graeme's dj work plus great blues bands, Weavers Arms is a veritable monument in rock history, North Pole is making a statement as an r&b venue, -- each place is special in its way, and we are looking for big turnouts on what is supposed to be a resurgent London blues scene. We hear the new Charlotte Street Blues may be the finest facility dedicated to blues on planet earth. The Kilborn Alley Blues Band does gritty Chicago blues and southern fried soul for all the generations of blues lovers. This music speaks for itself; better still, it convinces you to listen. And after just winning the Sean Costello Rising Star In The Blues Award at the Blues Blast Magazine's annual music awards, they will be a band not to be missed. So if your a fan of the blues and want to hear a great Chicago band get along to one of these gigs.
