AGMP Concerts and MVT Cohorts proudly present Laurence Jones, the British Blues Rock guitar sensation, live at the Colchester Arts Centre on January 9th, 2025. Don’t miss your chance to witness the electrifying performance of a guitarist hailed as ‘The Next Eric Clapton’ by the legendary Buddy Guy and praised by Rolling Stone Magazine for rocking the riffs on his latest album.
Laurence Jones, a multi-award-winning guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter, released his 8th studio album, ‘Bad Luck & The Blues,’ which soared to #1 on The Official Jazz & Blues Charts in the UK. Classic Rock Magazine rightfully calls him “The future of the blues,” and with good reason. Laurence’s career is decorated with numerous awards, a place in the British Blues Hall Of Fame, and recognition as one of the world’s top 10 blues-rock guitarists by Music Radar.
Having shared stages with music legends like Sir Van Morrison, Sir Ringo Starr, Buddy Guy, Jeff Beck, and Status Quo, Laurence Jones is no stranger to the limelight. His notable performances include appearances at prestigious venues like the Royal Albert Hall in London and Carnegie Hall in New York. His invitation by Buddy Guy to perform in front of 15,000 fans at the Holland International Blues Festival is a testament to his extraordinary talent.
Join us for an unforgettable night as Laurence Jones brings his ‘Bad Luck & The Blues’ tour to Colchester. AGMP Concerts and MVT Cohorts are excited to collaborate with the Music Venues Trust to showcase this incredible guitarist at some of the UK’s finest grassroots, independent music venues. It’s part of AGMP’s mission to support venues that have been the launching pads for some of the biggest music stars.
