Radio Costello – The Songs of Elvis Costello & the Attractions
Mar 22 @ 8:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Radio Costello - The Songs of Elvis Costello & the Attractions

On Friday 22nd March Radio Costello hit the JJJ stage for their first visit, bringing their tribute to the excellent Elvis Costello & the Attractions!

Based in Birmingham, England this barnstorming tribute act brings together some of the Midlands most experienced musicians playing songs from the heyday of post-punk and new wave with a live sound very much recalls the energy of early Attractions gigs – like their much-bootlegged show at the El Mocambo Club in Toronto, or on German TV for their breath-taking debut for Rockpalast.

Their setlist is largely drawn from a classic quartet of albums – My Aim is True, This Year’s Model, Armed Forces and of course the amazing Get Happy, with songs like Pump it Up, Oliver’s Army, Radio Radio, Red Shoes, Watching the Detectives, Alison, Accidents Will Happen and a host of others that you may have forgotten that you love.

Don’t miss what promises to be a fantastic night of live music from the early years of a song writing great back in the days when he was backed by a skilled set of musicians (Steve Nieve, Bruce Thomas and Pete Thomas) that drove every track along with great skill and power.

Show Starts: 8.00pm | Ticket: £14.00 (Inc. Fees) online | £16.00 on the door (subject to capacity)

Vincent Flatts Final Drive – No-Nonsense Blues Boogie

On Saturday 23rd March we welcome back Vincent Flatts Final Drive to JJJ who’ll be bringing the boogie writ large!

We hardly feel we need to describe the Flatts as you all know them by now, right? However, for the uninitiated we can attest to the fact that the boys always put on a great show packed full of driving boogie numbers featuring excellent guitar work from Gary Harper underpinned by the driving rhythm section of Rich Shelton (Drums) and Russ Cook (Bass) … oh, and of course Birmingham music leg-end Sir Steve ‘Bertie’ Burton on vocals!

We anticipate a huge demand for tickets for this show (incidentally the boys have a new single out – Thanks for the Ride – which which you can enjoy at your leisure via Spotify: HERE and Amazon HERE) so recommend booking early … don’t miss this one folks!

Dirty Ruby - Blues Rock

On Friday 29th March we welcome Dirty Ruby to Joe Joe Jims, a five piece contemporary, but eclectic, sharp edged blues rock band hailing from the East Midlands that we are certain will go down a storm!

Recently compared to 70s Rock bands Stone the Crows and Vinegar Joe, with their eclectic, energetic style of Blues Rock, paired with Hammond organ, beautiful bluesy guitar, tight rhythm section and soulful, well delivered lead vocals, Dirty Ruby are starting to carve themselves a local, well respected following on the UK Blues circuit.

The band state: “we are a five piece female fronted blues and roots band from Nottingham, playing original material and covers with an alternative blues sound” … sounds good to us!

Status Quo tribute band Just Doin’ It make a welcome return to Joe Joe Jims on Saturday 30th March for what will be another great show of heads down, no-nonsense blues boogie – the boys play a great mix of their 70s/early 80s rock classics so think more Roll Over Lay Down than Marguerita Time!

The Band ensure that their live performances recreate the excitement and raw power of Status Quo, making sure that the music played live is as fresh and authentic as it can possibly be: make sure you don’t miss this gig!

On Friday 19th April we welcome back ‘supergroup’ Taxi For Jesus – who feature four past members of The Trevor Burton Band: Maz Mitrenko (Lead Guitar and Vocals), Stuart Ford (Lead Guitar), Pez Connor (Bass), Bill Jefferson (drums) – to Joe Joe Jims.

Maz has enjoyed over 50 years in the music business as a guitar player, singer and songwriter and there have been almost countless bands and projects he has been involved with over the years, the most recognised being his tenures with Hoi Polloi, The Handsome Beasts and the Trevor Burton band.

Although he has been running his own successful band for over a decade, he was pleased to be asked to participate in this new project, not least because it features some of his former bandmates with The Trevor Burton Band and although The Maz Mitrenko band will continue to perform, Maz is enjoying trying something a little different with “Taxi for Jesus”!

So, get down to Joe Joe Jims for what will be an energetic, highly charged performance from a great group of musicians.
