Creating a heady mix of New Orleans and North Mississippi rhythms, blended with their own Thames delta style, and some West African influences thrown in for good measure; the South London blues trio, Jimmy Regal and the Royals have delivered another fine example of blues fusion — this time with even more friends!
The band released their self-titled debut album in 2018. Rave reviews proceeded and with the release of ‘late Night Chicken’ in 2020, the band were hot gossip and well on their way to taking centre stage on the UK blues scene. 2021 saw the release of a 5-track E.P., and a track featuring long-time friend and collaborator, Diabel Cissokho was featured on BBC 4’s Loose Ends as a live session, recorded during the pandemic.
Jimmy Regal and the Royals transfer their music seamlessly to the live stage, having recently opened up for U.S. sensation, GA20 at London’s Garage, as well as appearing at Red Rooster Festival and the UK blues and rock festival. The band continue to reach new audiences and Lunaria Records is pleased to announce the release of their latest album, ‘First And Last Stop’. An all original release, which successfully demonstrates the band’s ever evolving style, packed with plenty of guest musicians, whilst retaining the spirt of the core band and their individual sound.
