The Pheasantry (Chelsea)
Cooking up a hot gumbo of old school New Orleans R&B, Tim Penn brings the sounds of the American Deep South to PizzaExpress with his band, The Second Line. The band draws on the music of Fats Domino, Professor Longhair, Dr John, Allen Toussaint and then stirs it up with a pinch of Ray Charles, Tom Waits and Tim’s own original compositions, a recipe that has led to a string of sold out shows in London over the last few years. In Tim’s own words “This is the blues, but with a great big smile on its face”.
