The Forum, the University of Hertfordshire’s newly developed, state of the art £38 million live gig/club venue, is delighted to launch its series of live blues concerts in conjunction with Movinmusic on 3 December with internationally acclaimed singer and pianist Mike Sanchez.

Sanchez, whose fans and friends include Eric Clapton, Robert Plant and Mick Fleetwood, will bring his award winning blend of rhythm and blues to the Forum with a star-studded six piece band.

From founding rockabilly trio The Rockets in his teens, Mike has played and recorded with other legendary musicians including Jeff Beck, Grammy Award winner Albert Lee and Amen Corner's Andy Fairweather-Low in bands including the Royal Albert Hall-gracing Big Town Playboys.

His powerful boogie-woogie has gained him fans across the globe during annual world tours and high profile festival performances.

Mike's main aim has always been to make every live show his best yet as he continuously enjoys growing acclaim and admiration for his electrifying stage performances from new and old fans of all age groups across the world.

Tickets are £5 for students and £10 for non students. 

The Forum is set to become the home of blues in Hertfordshire, hosting gigs including:
