Horst Zwipp zwippgruppe | zwippconsult takes over the management of the English Suppergroup The Blue Water Giants
SLEEK POWER & ELEGANCE
Our appetite for the classic music of former decades has never been greater, but at last, cresting today’s wave of mere imitators, comes tomorrow’s super band. The Blue Water Giants is awash with seasoned musos who bring fresh life to a world of original songs and records that – crucially – they themselves made their names performing.
Captained by Josh Phillips (organist from the legendary Procol Harum) and singer/pianist Sam Tanner, the all-British crew is anchored by Status Quo’s John ‘Rhino’ Edwards on bass, and driven by twin-prop guitarists Freddie Edwards (Rhino’s son) with the excellent Neil Taylor from Tears for Fears and Robbie Williams’s band. Drummer Craig Alexander completes a line-up.
In addition to instrumental virtuosity, harbours the vocal skills to suit any song, any occasion.
Wide-ranging careers collaborating with AOR luminaries – among them Jeff Beck, Big Country, Dexy’s Midnight Runners, The Faces, Mick Hucknall, The Pretenders, Mike Rutherford, Rod Stewart, Tina Turner and The Who – lend The Blue Water Giants absolute authority when it comes to delivering their choice repertoire live.
The sleek power and elegance they command has made them the undisputed figureheads of a new movement … Super-Yacht Rock.
