I'm 13, I'm from Germany and this is my favourite singer/band for the last 2 years! HE'S AWESOME!!! Thanks Dad that I've heard about him, because you said that I've to listen to this music!
.... which is an island in between England and Ireland. It is not part of the United Kingdom but it is in Great Britain. It is independent and has the oldest democracy in the world. It is not in the European Union. The island breeds people like Back Door Slam and The Bee Gees.
No, they haven't split up, Davy has found new members and is now on his way to super-stardom, touring with some of the world's greatest blues greats. Davy is still here, and he won't let his friends down, watch. The old band will be back if they want to back, Davy will help them! That's the kind of guy he is!
The Singer / Guitarist is touring with the Rhytrm Devils, a Greadful Dead Tribute Band. I highly recommend seeing them. Davy and the band are Awesome!!!
I miss Adam and Ross ;( They used to be like kids on tour for the first time, it was such a treat to watch them play and have fun. Now davy's turned into a solo professional. It's like the end of an era :(
Just discovered these boys, how great to see such talent. lead singer reminds me of Jonny Lang (same deal -young but mature voice and guitar playing). how refreshing!
wooo their from the isle of man!!! if no 1 know where that is look it up its amazing!!! butttt avoid foxdale... lool (only people from their would understand)
Nope, not anymore. They split up. Someone forgot to tell them that when you catch lightning in a bottle you don't fuck with it, because you'll most likely never do it again. They were positioned to make a big mark on the music world, but they broke up the band so instead we're gonna have to endure another decade of garbage music.
this guys so good that ppl cant even tab his solos lol they can tab say the beginin and then leav comments like only davy can play the solo soz haha class
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
well you know, sometimes I just feel like jerking off on my neighbours plants, hell, it makes me feel a live. I also enjoy pooping on my sisters face.... DONT JUDGE ME!!!
someone gave me a pair of tickets for this show, and i was like, who the fuck is backdoor slam...almost gave them away, then i looked up a couple songs...i am now keeping the tickets and am looking forward to buying a cd...good music
I worked backstage at a festival he was playing at. All I got to say is wow! Afterward, I got to talk to him andthe band let me take a picture with them! That was cool. Then Ronnie Baker Brooks came on and it was off to another great show!
brilliant to think that a couple of years ago i played on the same stage as davy...in a crap band and i was dissappointed after and he picked up my guitar and played it and went about telling me the history and Adam played my bass while waiting for the bus home...awesome guys!
My Dads been playing guitar for 35 years and if it wasn't for his great job I have no doubt he'd be playing with the likes of Clapton. He showed me this band and he turned to me and goes "There is hope for your generation.. These guys fucking ROCK" His tone reminds us of SRV!!!
I've heard that this song is a cover, but I know it isn't. My question is, what song does it sound like? It's right on the tip of tongue, and it sounds so similar to something else, but I can't quite put my finger on it.
Peter Frampton produced the new Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam CD "Coming Up For Air". Knowles, from Isle of Man is now touring the US promoting the new CD. "There is enough swagger, anguish and fiery chops in this Peter Frampton-produced set to qualify 22-year-old British guitarist Knowles for mainstream blues-rock cred." (USA Today review of 'Coming Up For Air') For more information see: davyknowlesdotcom
Saw them open for Chickenfoot too..(Thanks Guys for turning me onto this band! ) awesome talent..can't get enuff of them..I know both of their cd's will be added to my library:-)
As a Manx girl lost in the UK, it just so lovely to hear such fantastic music coming out of the Isle of Man. Roll Away feels like a reel anthem for those of us who love back home but have a life elsewhere xx
Não ouvia uma música tão virtuosa buscando as raizes do blues desde The Doors,nota 10. Parabéns, se melhorar estraga.Venham para o Brasil!!! Ch'an - vocal.RS
I just saw you guys TODAY!!! at the chesapeake bay blues festival!!! I wish i could have baught your CD but they sold out before I got ahead in line!! :'-( I love this song!! and your cover of CS&N - "almost cut my hair" AWESOME!!
wow this song is awesome...i hope davy makes is big so i can go see him one day...best new blues song ive heard in a long time by a young and upcoming band
"To clear up any confusion, this is not the end of the road for any of us...whilst Adam & Ross are pursuing their own music careers outside this band, I can confirm I will be continuing as Davy Knowles & Back Door Slam. I am currently writing and preparing songs for the follow up to Roll Away, and I will be touring later in the year to support its release. Can't wait for that, & I look forward to seeing you out there on the road! More news soon, Cheers, Davy :) "
I found it! I knew this sounded familiar...It's a proxy of "Route 66". I'll bet anything they had that tune in their head when they wrote this song. Sounds amazing, BDS just got a new fan :D
Lose a few bars of respect since they flipped off Stevie, but still some of the greatest stuff I've heard. Renewed my hope that there's still some good music around today... *from 14 year old kid*
I saw these guys opening for Skynyrd in New Orleans a few years ago and I've been addicted ever since.
