Episode #120 Ruzz Guitar's Blues Revue Interview May 29, 2023

Show notes

In this episode I talk to Blues & Rockabilly guitar virtuoso Ruzz Evans from Ruzz Guitar's Blues Revue.
Ruzz is a hugely accomplished musician and we catch him just on the cusp of a mammoth US tour. Dates can be found here
Ruzz has also been honoured by being officially endorsed by Gretsch Guitars since 2016. He used as the front cover image for UK Rock’n’Roll Magazine with a three page feature on the band and 2020 saw the band receive a two page feature in the 'Blues In Britain' magazine.
This was a great conversation and a great insight to the story behind one of the U.K's best touring guitarists.
