“A celebration, an anniversary and a farewell”
2025 will be a celebration, an anniversary and a farewell. After 33 amazing years the time has come for the Spikedrivers to say goodbye. This year also marks the 25th anniversary of the longest running line up. Wanting to go out on a high and play at their favourite venues and festivals we are thrilled to be playing again at the wonderful Ilminster Arts Centre on the 17th of October.
Their music has been described as 'haunting', 'gutsy', 'tribal' and even psychedelic. Blues in Britain says, “From the first note, Spikedrivers demand to be listened to. Ben Tyzack, Constance Redgrave, Maurice McElroy & Roger Nunn are four very talented musicians willing to experiment and evoke unusual contemporary sounds while they continue to keep diggin’ the blues by the roots.”
