Authentic, raw Rhythm & Blues from the East Anglian Delta played with feel, energy and humour. Blues Situation cuts across a host of blues styles with strong songwriting, sharp lyrics, exciting guitar work, gritty Chicago-style harmonica, and a rhythm section that really grooves.

Established in 1990 by Luke, the band moved to Amsterdam full-time two years later. After disbanding in 1996, Luke returned to the UK to pursue other projects. The band was resurrected in 2011 by original member Luke Arnold and former Mean Red Spiders & Groove Doctors drummer John Butters; Kelvin Hill on bass and Mark Stuart on guitar, both former members of Built for Comfort.

After recording the band’s first album, Wonderful World, former Mean Red Spider, Toni Vines, replaced Mark on guitar for most of the band’s gigs in 2012. Craig Fillbrook followed in 2014 and has provided a compelling rock’n’roll edge to the sound

Two albums have been released in the past six years (Wonderful World and Sweet Like This). The third is on its way this year. The band has appeared at venues, festivals and Boogaloo weekenders, large and small, across the UK, as well as BBC and Internet radio
