Details of The Achievers
Artist / Band
Details
UK Blues Challenge winners The Achievers are one of the most talked about and critically acclaimed bands on the UK blues and roots music scene. With a reputation for innovation and originality, they prove that soul, groove and song-craft still matter in the blues. In less than 18 months their own brand of modern, secular 'dancefloor gospel-blues' has catapulted them from near-obscurity to rave reviews and big-stage appearances across the world. Following the release of their 2019 album 'The Lost Arc' they received radio airplay by Cerys Matthews (BBC 2 Blues Show) and reached #1 in the Independent Blues Broadcasters Airplay Charts. In September 2019, the band won one of the most prestigious accolades in British blues music when they were selected to represent the UK at the International and European Blues Challenges in 2020. In January 2020, they took part in the IBC and reached the semi-finals. The Achievers draw on their obsession with American vintage dancing music and songwriting pioneers of early rhythm 'n blues, Americana and southern soul - and with their infectious rhythms, joyful melodies and four-part harmonies, they stand proudly as British blues and roots outliers.
