John Bruce with Marcus Bonfanti

John Bruce is one of the greatest blues musicians Scotland has ever produced, but he’s rarely been a front man, let alone led a band. The guitarist has been a mainstay of Edinburgh blues for 40 years, playing lead guitar with Blues n’Trouble throughout their heyday as a globe-trotting touring band; and latterly featuring in Safehouse and The Jensen Interceptors. EJBF asked John to present a special band, and he came up with an intriguing double guitar concept, pitching himself against the young English guitar star, Marcus Bonfanti.
