Tony Farinha and Laurie McVay's music, a mixture of Blues, Ragtime, Swing, Gospel, Country
Blues and Delta styles, including both original and standard material, has made them one of the
more entertaining acts on the UK Blues/Roots circuit. They are frequently to be seen playing
with their band The Werewolves Of London, but their collective love for the Blues has taken
them increasingly into the club circuit.
Since playing as a Duo they have become the chosen support act of Eugene Bridges, Mike
Sanchez, Sam Payne, Chris Jagger, Albert Lee and Otis Grand.
The release of their debut album Just What The Doctor Ordered and their recent live session
and interview on the Paul Jones show along with great reviews in Blueprint Magazine and
Blues'n'Rhythm Magazine is a sure sign that you'll be hearing more from this new addition to
the British Blues scene. They are still playing but separately Tonys FB page Laurie’s FB Page
