It was wonderful for Harry and I to have the chance to be able to play 2 gigs for legendary Muddy Waters harp player Mojo Buford and his great drummer Doug McMinn. Mojo was a lovely feller, very smiley and both him and Doug were extremely complimentary to us. It was the first time in 6+ years (since the demise of The Producers) that we had played electric guitars together and gave us the oppportunity to dust off some stuff we hadn’t played in all that time.  ‘Be Careful’, ‘Crossroads’,‘You don’t Love me’, an electric version of ‘Walking Blues’ and a couple of others.There was certainly a few misty eyes when we played ‘Love, Food and Water’ once again, almost like the old times and great fun!
But we’re still not reforming, we’ve got no need to.

If only I'd have known!!

As Bass player, acoustic guitarist and founding member of Britains award winning blues band 'The Producers', Dave performed all over Britain, Ireland, Europe, Australia and New Zealand playing some of the biggest blues festivals around including acoustic slots at various festivals such as Burnley Blues Festival, a stunning set at the Templebar Music Centre during the Guiness/Templebar Blues Festival in Dublin and dates on the ex Fleetwood Mac guitarist Peter Greens comeback U.K tour.

As a duo alongside Producers Singer/ Guitarist Harry Skinner, they received riotous applause and rave reviews supporting American bluesman Eric Bibb as well as opening for TV's Jools Holland in front of 4000 fans at the Larmer Tree Festival and headlining the acoustic section of the North Wales Blues Festival. They have also played at the Atlanta Blues Festival in the US and opened concerts for such musical giants as Fleetwood Macs Peter Green, Taj Mahal, Albert Lee, Procol Harum, Jeff Healy and the Ray Charles Orchestra.

Dave also runs his Mojo Promotions company helping keep blues music active throughout the South West while still playing session and dep work most notably with US bluesman Bill Sheffield with whom Dave tours both here and the United States.
