Additional information

RAY BEADLE | LIVE AT THE OAST, RAINHAM | SATURDAY 22ND AUGUST 2026

One of Australia's most decorated blues guitarists comes to Kent for a Saturday night show that hard-driving blues fans will not want to miss.

Ray Beadle has spent over thirty years earning his stripes on the stages that matter — a three-month residency at BB King's Blues Club in Memphis, performances at Buddy Guy's legendary room in Chicago, three US tours, and a top-eight finish at the International Blues Challenge. He has fifteen albums to his name and a band that has been playing together for twenty years. This is not a tribute act or a heritage circuit show. This is the real thing.

His most recent album, Bound To Get The Blues (2023), was recorded live to tape and built for guitar players — raw, tough, Texas-style blues rock with solos that stretch out and say something. Multiple Chain Blues Awards, including Best Album, Best Song, and Best Male Artist, back up what audiences already know from seeing him live.

At The Oast in Rainham — a converted Victorian hop kiln with exposed brickwork and the kind of intimate atmosphere that puts you right in the room with the music — Ray Beadle will do what he always does: play like every note matters.
