Back in January 2017, the little old blues club in Sedgefield was the scene for a piece of musical history when a live CD was recorded at the Parish Hall by the winners of 2017 UK Blues Challenge winners, LaVendore Rogue. So, what is the meaning of LaVendore Rogue (pronounced LAV, as in ‘toilet’, END, as in ‘not the beginning’, ORE, as in ‘iron’). Well, nobody knows what the name means, but what is clear is that LaVendore Rogue are one of the most exciting bands to emerge on the UK Roots scene for many years competing in the 2018 International Blues Challenge in the USA and the European Blues Challenge in Hell, not the one in the deepest darkest realms of the earth’s core but in Norway.
Anyway, back to the album, the gritty performance captured the energy and power of their live shows and they are back, bigger and even more live than before!
We ask you…will you relive that NIGHT IN THE NORTH moment or witness the attitude and swagger of Jo Jo backed by the sublime guitar playing of Joel Fisk for the first time?
Note, the venue is all seated and holds 120. Over 90% of the gigs have sold out early since 2011.

"Wow. Just listened to your song. Sounds great."-Kenny Wayne ShepherdThe Della Grants are an English band whose self-penned songs seamlessly bridge the gaps between Blues, Rock, and Americana. Since their inception in 2014 The DGs have made a name for themselves among industry professionals and fellow musicians alike; for their song writing ability and on-stage performances.
"The Della Grants is a solid testament to modern blues. The foursome is sure to make some waves in the industry...."-Blues Rock ReviewMaggie Bell and Dave Kelly renewed their partnership in 2015 after a two year lay-off with some selected venues and festivals in the UK and Canada, and toured the UK in 2016. The on-stage chemistry is immediately apparent, stemming from their love and respect for the music they play as well as the deep knowledge of the genre.
