Blues Wire, the legendary Blues band from Greece, returns to Cyprus for one night only to present their brand new album “NOS” at Downtown Live, Nicosia on Sunday October 14.
Based in Thessaloniki and with over 35 years of active presence since forming in 1983, BLUES WIRE have performed thousands of gigs in Greece and Europe, played alongside Blues names including Louisiana Red, Katie Webster, John Hammond, Larry Garner, Big Time Sarah, and have opened for legends such as Buddy Guy, Albert King, James Cotton, Otis Rush, The Yardbirds and The Fabulous Thunderbirds.
With 15 albums and a double live DVD to their name, claims to fame such as the first English-language album in Greece and the longest continuously-performing band in Greece, BLUES WIRE are considered the foundation of the Greek Blues scene and can satisfy even the most demanding of Blues enthusiasts.
In the words of Blues prodigy Katie Webster (1936-1999), “BLUES WIRE are the best Blues band in Europe and deserve to be heard by a wider audience.”
