SUMMARY:Paul Cox and The Proof
DESCRIPTION:Paul Cox and The Proof \n“One of Britains finest blues/soul vocalist”  – Paul Jones\, BBC Radio 2.\n \nPaul Cox has been described as the “heir apparent to Chris Farlowe” and “the Pavarotti of British Blues”. He is quite simply one of the best blues/soul vocalists in the country\, right up there with Paul Rodgers\, Chris Farlowe and Frankie Miller in his prime. Paul Jones of Radio 2 fame cites him as one of his favourite voices. \nSince his first pro gig in 1978\, with a rock band from Rugby called Oyster\, Paul has cut over 14 albums\, opened for Ray Charles and Eric Clapton and shared the stage singing with an impressive list which includes Paul Rodgers\, Snowy White\, Ruby Turner\, Sam Brown and Bonnie Tyler. He’s also fronted several top class bands including Frankie Miller’s Full House\, John Slaughters Blues Band\, Tim Hinckley’s Heart and Soul as well as his own bands\, Soul Intention\, The Paul Cox Band\, and Fire and Water. Over the years he has picked up vast experience of festivals having played many the world over\, including the prestigious Montreux Jazz Festival. \nPauls’ early musical memories are of singing like those he’d heard on the radio as a teenager in the 70s and on his influences he says\, “It’s probably subconscious\, but more readily soul-blues style and passionate voices like Otis Redding\, Al Green\, Paul Rogers\, Joe Cocker and Robert Plant”. In the most recent years Paul has been working primarily with the brilliant young French guitarist Charlie Fabert who has built a glowing reputation and is considered one of the most gifted guitarists of his generation. Together they have toured and released the album ‘That’s What We Were Born For’; judging by their presence across the UK this Euro partnership was certainly a successful one! \nIn the last few years Paul has produced several standout CD’s along with sold out appearances at RONNIE SCOTTS\, THE HIDEAWAY in Streatham\, toured extensively in both the UK and Europe. Also in his time he has appeared on PAUL JONES’ RADIO 2 BLUES show on six different occasions as well as a one hour Jazz FM special along with performances on RADIO WEY\, BBC RADIO CAMBRIDGE and BBC OXFORD. \nHighly respected for his soulful approach to his brand of rocking blues\, the consummate professional who produces live performances that never disappoint. Be prepared to be entertained!! Paul Cox guarantees great music\, terrific vocals and a steamy mix of original material and traditional blues! \nHe is supported by a truly magnificent band of great musicians in their own right with Peter Stroud on drums\, Mike Summerland on guitar\, Nigel Hardy on bass and Diavid “Munch” Moore on keys.
