Ex-Chicago Smoke Shop frontman Darren Watson is celebrating 30 years of playing the blues in 2017.

He's bringing his kick-ass young band that includes Little Bushmans Rick Cranson on drums, Miles Calder & The Rumours' Steve Moodie on double bass, and Roseneath Centennial Ragtime Band's killer pianist Dayle Raymond Jellyman.

Expect classic, danceable 50s and 60s rhythm and blues alongside Watson's cutting originals.

All advance ticket purchasers will receive one free copy of either Smoke Shop - Fusion At Room Temperature OR Darren Watson - South Pacific Soul upon presenting tickets at the door.

Book early! The last time Watson brought a full band to Palmy it was sold out and pumping!

Door sales will be available on the night for $40 (cash only).
