John Mayall at Buxton Opera House

About

For over 50 years John Mayall has served as a pioneer of blues music, rightly earning him the title "The Godfather of British Blues".

In 2013, John signed with producer Eric Corne's label, Forty Below Records, and has since been experiencing a true artistic and career renaissance, including a Blues Hall of Fame induction in 2015.

Forty Below Records has recently released his new studio album Nobody Told Me. As with his last handful of albums, Mayall again shares production duties with Forty Below Founder Eric Corne who also handles engineering and mixing duties.

"This project has been a true labour of love for me and I can't wait for people to hear the fireworks that took place," beams Mayall. Nobody Told Me is an apt title for the blues icon who suffered a recent unexpected health scare shortly after recording the album. But, the seemingly ageless road dog, who famously takes no days off and carries his own gear on tour, has been given a clean bill of health and plans to return to his usual gruelling touring schedule to support the release.
