DEEP RIVER BLUES

Rootsy and raw hip-shakin’ blues from Callum Sutton and Kevin Dore – with drums from The Lighthouse’s very own James Hatton!

SHAUN BANKS (SLOVENIA)

Shaun Banks is a Slovenian one-man band artist, whose music is fuelled by punk rock energy and is fused in a garage with the soul and groove of blues. He takes the audience on a journey through his energetic craftsmanship, heavily influenced by The White Stripes, The Black Keys, and Robert Johnson.

Playing guitar and foot drums simultaneously, accompanied by his powerful and colourful voice with bluesy harmonica fills, makes for a great live show. Since 2018, he’s been performing at various Slovenian venues and festivals, with 2025 being his breakthrough on the international scene. With 2 tours across 17 countries, including Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Montenegro, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, he is quickly gaining a loyal international following.
