Following on from Son of Dave’s critically acclaimed 2008 album ‘03, the notorious genre-alchemist returns with his latest offering Shake A Bone recorded and mixed by Steve Albini (Nirvana, The Stooges, Robert Plant) in Chicago. You may know Benjamin Darvill (aka Son Of Dave) from his days spent in the band Crash Test Dummies, who toured relentlessly for 12 years and sold more than 8 million records. What you may not know about this Winnipeg born artist, is that he has been living in London, UK for the last number of years and has been bringing “the Blues kicking and howling into the 21st Century” ever since his 2006 release Son Of Dave‘02.
Son of Dave has toured the world as a solo act, playing hundreds of shows in the world’s best festivals, concert stages and night clubs; he has supported huge acts, appeared on major television programs and had chart success in several countries. Championed by the likes of Dazed & Confused, Vice and Clash, he has performed on BBC 2’s flagship music show ‘Later With Jools Holland’, has opened for Iggy and the Stooges, and supported Supergrass on their last UK tour.
