EUGENE HIDEAWAY BRIDGESAt Southport Arts Centre soon!

SOUTHPORT is set to stage Blues guitar man Eugene Hideaway Bridges at Southport Arts Centre. 

Comparisons of Bridges work with the late great Sam Cooke have often been made. But Eugene grew up steeped in gospel music and the blues. At the age of seven, he was singing gospel with his brothers and, later, formed his own R&B band, The Five Stars, before enlisting in the Air Force. On leaving, he joined The New Chosen Singers on guitar and vocals and went on to play with seminal gospel group, The Mighty Clouds of Joy. 

Just a year later, The Eugene Hideaway Bridges Band was born, ever since, he has been receiving rave reviews for his live performances, whipping up a storm with his distinctive southern sound.

Eugene was awarded vocalist of the year by the UK’s Blueprint magazine and Trophees France Blues 99 – Chanteur De L’Anee.
