Lachy Doley, dubbed the Jimi Hendrix of the Hammond organ, is the most famous Australian Blues/Soul/Rock organist in the world today.He is a performer who can make the keys produce the most unexpected sounds: intense, fierce, sometimes even transcendental.Since his debut on stage in 2011, Lachy Doley has already played over 500 shows and festivals worldwide, including Bospop Festival (NL), Montreal Jazz Festival (CA), Swiecie Blues Festival (PL), Blues on Broadbeach (AU), Culemborg Blues Festival (NL), Bejar Blues Festival (EU) etc.Lachy Doley Group - a unique sound in the classic and sometimes very traditional blues genre. The artist comes to Kaunas as a trio - it's a powerful tandem of bass, drums and, of course, Paties Doley, in which vocals screaming from the heart and the sound of an extremely rare organ are in incredible harmony.
Louie Fontaine himself and the band will warm the stage for guests from Australia.
After the pre-pandemic tour of the USA with the latest album "The Sun Ain't Black", Louie Fontaine and the band returned to Europe, to their second home in Latvia and invite you to see them at the OLDMAN Kaunas concert.The album "The Sun Ain't Black" is the culmination of three decades of experience gained in playing and recording a wide variety of music. The Sun Ain't Black is primarily an Americana record, with blues, country and even art rock to explore. Shades of the Stones, Tom Petty, Nick Cave and Tom Waits all peek out from this jewel box.
Records remain records, and this Louie Fontaine live show is a real rock concert with rock energy.If Queens of the Stone Age were an Americana band and fronted by David Bowie, they'd sound like Louie Fontaine.Fontaine is a singer, guitarist and bassist who writes songs in a variety of styles that often tell elaborate, macabre stories. He's a true Gen X-er, and his stage skills and visual savvy seem ripped from the MTV era.Meanwhile, Louie is a great blues artist who honed his craft playing with Louisiana soul/R&B master Rockie Charles, with whom Fontaine toured, recorded and produced his last two albums, Have You Seen My Uncle Steve and I Want First Class". Charles wrote the song "That's Rockin'" and for Fontaine's latest album.When performing live, Louie likes to change costumes and be a little more than just a man with a guitar.
