“Well, well, well. If it isn’t Rhys James. The guy who said comedy shows are for losers and blurbs are for idiots. Unbelievable. He’s 26 now which means he’s officially closer to 30 than he is to his stepdad. This is the critically acclaimed new show from the ‘whip-smart wordsmith’ who still has his wisdom teeth.”

“Blending old school and contemporary influences, they take inspiration from 50’s Jazz, 60’s Soul and Electric Blues – weaving deep sultry Blues and heavy grooves. Citing bands from Led Zeppelin to Sam Cooke, Freddie King to J Dilla, expect virtuosic musicianship and soulful vocals with a killer live show.”

“Jukes have the lyrical bent of song writers like Rufus and Martha Wainwright etched in to a haunting zone of chill out lounge. A soul singer with a melancholic reserve, bringing ghosts of the blues like a modern day Peggy Lee.”
