Under The Bridge - July 2013:

Gov't Mule - Thursday 4th July
Phenomenal blues-rock outfit Gov't Mule return to Under The Bridge for the first time since their stellar performance as part of Bluesfest 2012. The four-piece band, featuring singer/guitarist Warren Haynes, drummer Matt Abs, bassist Jorgen Carlsson and keyboardist Danny Louis, appear as part of their "Prepare to Shout!" US and European tour.

Bettye LaVette - Wednesday 17th July
R&B legend Bettye LaVette marks her 50th anniversary in the music world with a one-off concert at Under The Bridge to celebrate the upcoming release of her mesmerizing album, Thankful N' Thoughtful (released on Anti Records) as well as her no holds barred autobiography, co-written with David Ritz and due for release on September 27th.

Lee Fields & The Expressions - Friday 26th July
Under The Bridge is proud to announce that resurgent soul man Lee Fields & his band The Expressions will be performing their only UK headline gig of 2013 at the West London venue on July 26th. Fresh off the back of recent album Faithful Man, Fields returns to the UK to show today's soul stars how it's really done. With Faithful Man, he takes it right back to the old school, with a modern take on a vintage sound. The songs tell tales of love, heartbreak and blues in the time-honoured way.

Taj Mahal - Sunday 28th + Monday 29th July
Legendary blues and roots icon Taj Mahal stops by at West London venue Under The Bridge for two nights in July. Having recently released his long-awaited box set of 13 album titles spanning 1965 to 1976, and with a new greatest hits compilation on the way, this is surely a must-see gig for all blues fans.
