Award winning blues-rock artist Laurence Jones returns to Selby with his debut solo acoustic ‘On My Own’ tour, returning to his roots: pure blues!

The award-winning and critically acclaimed blues artist from Liverpool has opened for the likes of Ringo Starr, Sir Van Morrison, Jeff Beck, Johnny Winter, Walter Trout and recently Status Quo.

After Joining Buddy Guy on stage to jam and experience the blues first hand, Buddy remarked “He’s like a young Eric Clapton” and that pretty much says it all.

Raised on the classical guitar and achieved Grade 8 Distinction at the age of 18, he now combines his musical heritage with the energy of the blues-rock that made him famous. Laurence Jones has built up a loyal fan base throughout The UK and Europe, signing his first record deal at just 17, gaining him many awards and accolades with his critically acclaimed blues album ‘Thunder In The Sky’ in 2012. Fast forward over a decade on the road and 1200+ shows under his belt. Laurence’s debut solo album ‘On My Own’ feels intimate and personal, yet simultaneously bursting with the power and tradition of the blues. Laurence Jones proves once again why he’s considered one of the absolute top performers in the genre.

Despite his health challenges, Jones continues to add to a career that already includes multiple British Blues Awards, over 50,000 albums sold worldwide, #1 album in the Official UK Jazz & Blues chart. This time, however, the focus is less on charts and accolades and more on telling his story through stripped-down, heartfelt blues.

“There are many singer-songwriters recording and performing but not many as accomplished as Laurence Jones” – BLUES IN BRITAIN 

Music Radar voted Laurence ‘one of the world’s TOP 10 blues-rock guitarists’

‘Laurence Jones is an inspiration to many – Blues Rock Review 

‘WOW this is real music’ – NPO radio 2 

SUPPORT: Amy Eftekhari

The opening act is Amy Eftekhari, a singer-songwriter from Nottingham and life partner of Laurence Jones. Amy is known for her emotional and honest approach to songwriting. Her music combines vulnerability with strength and authenticity. On her debut EP, “All the Words,” Amy Eftekhari naturally brings these qualities together.
