Maggie Ross Band

Blues / Rock

I have been singing for a living since my teens, but considered myself a 'jobbing vocalist', singing whatever I was paid to, covering a range of styles, from swing band to rock, musical theatre to soul, radio/TV jingles to cabaret. But decision made, the hunt was on for my band. A chance meeting led me to old friends, bass player John Chaytor and drummer Dave Dodsworth, both locally well known and respected musicians and both keen to return to their musical roots. It took a while but we found just the right guitarist in classically trained Martin Craggs. The rehearsal and planning sessions are a blur. Such a wealth of great material waiting for our interpretation. Such satisfaction in developing our own Blues Rock style as our set lists expanded and soon we were itching to be let loose!
