West Weston has now fulfilled one of his burning ambitions, to construct a big band recreating the true rocking Rhythm & Blues sounds of the 40's & 50's. Played with the genuine authority that comes with years of dedication and love of this bygone era, Big Rhythm is the fulfillment of that dream.
The cocktail of dynamic vocals, swinging harmonica, pulsating brass, rocking guitar and boogie-woogie piano mixed with the authentic toe tapping rhythms of the times has seen venues packed out to hear the biggest sound around. Their rendition of Smiley Lewis, Fats Domino and Wynonie Harris classics together with original material makes Big Rhythm a truly formidable outfit, described by the legendary 100 Club as having "the style and power of Roomful of Blues combined with the energy of the early Big Town Playboys."
For many years West Weston has been at the forefront of the European blues scene as a charismatic front man, vocalist and musician. Widely acclaimed as one of the UK's finest exponents of the Chicago blues harmonica and boogie-woogie piano, he has fronted his own band ' The Bluesonics,' as well as name acts including, 'The Brothers Grimm' and 'The Big Town Playboys,' to audiences around the world.
The Big Rhythm line up features musicians who have played and recorded alongside blues & rock heavyweights such as Van Morrison, Jools Holland, Rosco Gordon, Jeff Beck, Robert Plant, Howlin Wilf & The Veejays, Big Joe Louis, The Big Six and James Taylor.
