BLUE HEAT is an exciting band from Warrnambool, led by guitarist, singer and songwriter Marco Goldsmith. They are one of the hottest blues bands on the Australian scene, with a big strong sound and an all-original repertoire.
They played their debut gig at the 1991 Ballarat Blues Festival. In 1995 Marco Goldsmith won Best Male Artist and their first album 'Marooned' won ‘Australian Blues Album of the Year'. In 1996, their second album 'Irresistible Behaviour' (remastered 2011 with bonus tracks) also won the award whilst Blue Heat won the 'Australian Blues Band of the Year'.
The big sound of the band, backed by a swinging horn section, fuelled by incendiary guitar and a strong stage presence has seen them in action at many of Australia’s live venues and festivals. In May 1997, one of the finest R&B bands in Australia achieved nationwide acclaim after a memorable night supporting B.B. King.
They’ve since released a live CD – ‘Live at the Continental’ documenting one of Blue Heat's gigs at Prahran's legendary Continental Cafe during this era. Originally recorded and broadcast by ABC Radio National, five of the eleven tracks were brand new songs, never previously released. It showcased the band after countless tours and an acclaimed career. This third album is rounded off by a guest sit-in on three tracks by Jeff Lang who also opened the night for them.
More than seventeen years on, the band still garners accolades as Australia's pre-eminent R&B outfit and have recently thrilled crowds at festivals such as the Queenscliff Music Festival, Echuca-Moama Winter Blues Festival, Warrnambool’s Wunta Fiesta, Mordialloc By The Bay Fine Food Wine & Music Festival, Wangaratta Festival of Jazz & Blues, Thredbo Blues Festival, Port Fairy Folk Music Festival, Bruthen Blues & Arts Festival, Forth Valley Blues Festival, Cairns Blues Festival, Blues At Bridgetown, Traf East Blues, Upwelling Festival Portland, Great Southern Blues Festival Narooma, Moyneyana Festival Port Fairy Blues At The Briars & Yackandandah Folk Festival. Blue Heat is a guaranteed festival highlight.
After performing for more than 20 years, members from the original Marco Goldsmith’s Blue Heat formed in 1991 road-tested a 5 piece line-up in 2013 and it rocked! They were so happy in fact that they decided to proceed in that format. With a new album, 'One Day Too Long' recorded with this line-up in 2014, their first studio recording in almost 20 years will be ready for showcasing in 2015 at gigs and festivals. The band is energised and excited about the future.
The juggernaut which is Blue Heat delivers world-class Rhythm and Blues. Multiple Australian Blues Awards winners, the Age described Blue Heat's second album 'the best RnB record since their first', and their live show as 'carving up visiting acts'. With cracking soloists, killer rhythm section and 'The Hurricane Horns', Blue Heat is a must see.
