Jimi Hocking
November 27, 2016 @ 4:00 pm
Jimi Hocking is a songwriter, singer and guitarist of the highest calibre, the electric love child of T-Bone Walker, BB King and Jimi Hendrix. He struts the stage with his band, playing his ‘showy’ guitar style while pulling all the classic stunts … behind the head … the duck walk … even the splits!
Jimi is in his element live on stage, whether it be a small cafe or a massive festival. His combination of banter and story-telling, wailing guitar and mandolin with superb songwriting and performance makes Jimi one of the ‘must-see’ acts in blues today.
The blues is Jimi’s first love but he has written and performed acoustic music most of his life and spent many years fronting rock bands with his Les Paul and Marshall amp turned up to eleven! It’s all here, from the vinyl Astros EP, through rock, acoustic and blues albums to the latest ‘lo-fi’ EP Home Cooking, all with images, notes and track listings.
