TROTTER  T's Independent Boogie Co.

                                      T's Independent Boogie Co.

 

The name signifies nothing but Trotter's soft spot for the Blues. After spending more than two decades in the UK and Australia honing an illustrious career in various musical genres with all sorts of different people, a few years ago he returned to his homeland. And the Blues just won't leave him alone. „Once you've caught the bug you've had it.“ he says with a smile. „And that's exactly why we started the „Independents“. More like a congregation of individual musicians than a steady band they sporadically meet to celebrate their passion for the Blues together. 

 

Die Line-up:

 

Julius Seelig  – vocs.      www.bluesalligators.de

Benny Krise – guit.

The „Independents“ like to invite special guests to their shows. 

That makes every appearance of theirs a different experience to the last one,  while their endless passion for the Blues shines through their music everytime.
