Dale Storr‘s musical journey has taken him from his rural Lincolnshire upbringing to his own musical mecca, New Orleans. Inspired by the Big Easy’s legendary pianists such as Dr.John and James Booker he is now recognised as the UK’s leading exponent of New Orleans piano. Before going solo Dale played for the likes of Eugene ‘Hideaway’ Bridges and Earl Thomas and has been nominated four times for Best Piano Player in the British Blues Awards.
Dale’s ambition has always been to play the music of New Orleans, which can be anything from a classically influenced minuet, a latin rhumba, a back o’ town junker blues to a frenzied boogie woogie.
