The Sean Webster Blues Band formed in 2003 as a natural progression from Sean’s previous band Stateside.

Sean’s fine guitar playing combines a great number of influences including Albert Collins, Eric Clapton, Mark Knopfler, Gary Moore and SRV, to name a few. His vocal style is of a rich, sexy tone with a low-end rumble, drawing comparisons with Joe Cocker, Bryan Adams and Jonny Lang.

Britain’s leading blues magazine ‘Blues Matters!’ described the band’s debut album ‘Long Time Coming’ as “a real gem”, concluding that Sean was “… set for big stages with superb guitar work…”

The band now has three albums under its belt and has toured the UK and Europe extensively, as well as making a short tour of the US in 2007. A big hit at the 2008 Admiral Mumbles Mostly Jazz and Blues Festival, they are back by popular demand headlining at the 2009 festival.
