Upton Bluesfest Gallery in Blues in Britain

The latest issue of Blues in Britain magazine comes with a look back on summer festivals in the UK - and their Upton Blues Festival gallery below features a lovely image of Andres Roots from the festival's Acoustic Roots Stage in St Peter & St Paul's Church, by Chris Roberts. Cheers!

The Scottish shows in Glasgow, Stirling, Irvine, Kirkcaldy and Banchory with the inimitable Dave Arcari were a blast - here's the first batch of photos, with more to come. These pics by Margaret McDonald, Dave Arcari and Andres Roots.

Helsinki Clips

On Sunday, Andres Roots played his 24th gig in Finland this year, appearing at the 39th annual Martin Markkinat fair and culture festival, held at the Cable Factory in Helsinki. For two sets, he was joined by the Finnish harmonica ace Jantso Jokelin; the third, uncheduled set he played solo - a joint panel by the Estonian and Finnish Ministers of Culture had to be cancelled due to illness and Roots brought in to cover.
