Back from a whirlwind tour of Canada with guitarist Harry Manx, Clayton Doley has assembled an exceptional ten piece band for this special one off show at Lazybones. This will probably be your last chance to catch Clayton before he records his new album and a rare opportunity to enjoy Clayton's remarkable keyboard skills and soulful vocals with the fabulous 'Clay-tones' and the incredible 'Hi-Fi-Doley-T Horns' featuring some of this country's finest singers and brass players.
Expect a supercharged night of New Orleans style blues, soul and funk with original material from Clayton's many fine albums including the much acclaimed Bayou Billabong - an album recorded in both Sydney and New Orleans and featuring some of the Crescent City's finest musicians.
Over the last fifteen years Clayton has played with a who's who of international artists such as Joe Bonamassa, Walter 'Wolfman' Washington, Steve Cropper & Donald 'Duck' Dunn (Booker T & the M.G.'s, Blues Brothers), David Garibaldi (Tower Of Power), Jimmy Barnes, The Divinyls, The Dead Daisies, Hubert Sumlin, Mojo Buford, Louisiana Red, Guitar Shorty, Renee Geyer, The Mighty Reapers Eugene Hideaway Bridges and Jackie Orszaczky - to name a few. He has also forged a strong reputation as an artist and band leader in his own right and the Lazybones date will provide a great showcase for this.
If you love funky Hammond keyboard sounds, heartfelt vocals, contagious guitar grooves, a driving bassline, fatback drums and an insanely riffing horn section - this is a night not to be missed. Put on your dancing shoes and party!
