Chain

Chain, the originators of ‘Oz-Blues’, are returning to MEMO to celebrate 56 years at the top of the blues and blues/rock music scene in Australia.

As the only blues band to have a number one on Australian charts (Black’n’Blue) as well as a number two (Judgement), they also have the distinction of having possibly the longest permanently released album in Australian rock history in ‘Toward The Blues’.(Double gold)

'I Remember When I Was Young' was released as a Matt Taylor single with Chain playing on it. This also went to number one on the charts.

With ‘Chain Awards’ honouring their achievements at the Australian Blues Festival (Goulburn) & as the first act listed in the new blues section of Screensound (National Archives) the accolades still continue.

Singer/harmonica player Matt Taylor and founder member/guitarist Phil Manning each have highly successful careers as solo performers,. but with Dirk Dubois on bass and drummer Trevor 'Trapper' Draper, they combine to create the Chain sound that has reverberated throughout the country since 1968

Chain live is a great entertainment experience, and with over five decades of albums & performances under their belt, it doesn’t get any better than this!
