Formed in 2002 by bassist Chris Lomas ( ex Parkers Alibi ) and guitarist Mark Shaw, Memphis In The Meantime were originally a trio playing raw blues, cool west coast swing and rock ‘n’ roll so hot that it could get them their own liquor licence !
In 2003 they recruited the services of ace Hammond organist and piano player Fred Skidmore whose truly original approach and registration became an integral part of the band’s sound. The early part of the band’s career was spent backing various visiting American blues acts, touring the UK with Tommy McCoy ( with whom they recorded a live album ) and Jimmy Griswold both from Florida and also Paul Byrd from Fort Worth, Texas and Leanne Binder from Ohio. But despite this busy schedule they still managed to clock up critically acclaimed appearances in their own right at The Dragon Blues Festival in Wrexham, UK and in many of the clubs on the UK blues circuit. Drummers came and went but when Micky Barker ( Magnum, Steve Gibbons, Trevor Burton ) got behind the kit then the sparks really did start to fly. His powerful, groove-oriented style was perfect and the final piece of the jigsaw fell into place Interest from one of Europe’s biggest blues & roots labels led to the band starting work on their debut album, featuring originals and favourites from their live set.
