Bees Deluxe - Barside

Bees Deluxe is a Boston-based British/American acid blues collective founded by British guitarist Conrad Warre, whose resume runs through Joe Jackson and The English Beat, alongside classically trained pianist turned harmonica player Carol Band. Their sets blur blues, jazz, funk and psychedelia, mixing originals with reworked material from Albert Collins, Freddie King, Billie Holiday and Miles Davis. They won the 2025 New Hampshire State Blues Challenge and reached the semi-finals of the 2026 International Blues Challenge in Memphis.
