Sydney Blues Duo 688’s passion for the blues takes you on a journey to the deep south where the Delta blues was born, through the ages and styles from past to present. In his show Sydney Blues Duo 688 incorporates instruments such as the Resonator guitar with slide, Cigar Box guitar and a stomp box to keep the beat.
Sydney Blues Duo 688 has always had a deep seated passion and love for the acoustic blues. This passion was cultivated when he met John Morris (Brother John) from the Blues Preachers, who developed in him a love for songs from Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, Manse Lipscombe and many others from the era.
Sydney Blues Duo 688 has now put together his new solo act, Sydney Blues Duo 688, where he uses the acoustic guitar and resonator to punch out classic delta and country blues in a unique picking style he learnt from Brother John.
Mission Statement: To revive, nurture and showcase the era and story of the Delta Blues and educate audiences on the origins of the genre.
Can perform as a: Duo and are available to perform in Sydney and Surrounding Areas.
