Stompin' Dave teams up with superb drummer Lucy Piper, and outstanding bass player Sophie Lord, assembling an exciting new trio.

“In other parts of the world they have cyclones, tornados and hurricanes, in the UK we have Stompin' Dave. Dave is a phenomenal artist” Blues In The South. A former member of former UK Blues Band of the Year The Producers, Stompin' Dave was nominated for a British Blues Award in 2014.

Exeter based drummer Lucy Piper is the daughter of the late blues guitarist, writer and broadcaster Julian Piper. Over the past few years Lucy has spent many nights performing in Mississippi, USA alongside many top musicians. In 2019 and 2020 Lucy worked with double Grammy Award winning label Ruf Records on their annual 'Blues Caravan'.

Lucy played drums on Ryan Perry's album High Risk, Low Reward which was nominated for a Blues Music Award 2020 (universally recognised as the highest award in Blues music.)

Joining Dave and Lucy is tremendous bassist Sophie Lord. Mentored by Norman Watt-Roy bass player with Ian Dury and The Blockheads, Sophie has recently returned to her native county of Devon after living in London the last decade or so, as a bassist for hire.

Sophie has performed with an eclectic mix of different artists including former members of Level 42, UK singles charting R&B artist Marlon Roudette, punk legend Viv Albertine lead singer of The Slits, USA, and many others.

Sophie currently performs with all star blues band Bluesclub that includes former members of Paul McCartney, Dire Straits and The Pretenders, as well as with highly regarded Plymouth based blues musician Vince Lee.
