Giles
Hedley and the Aviators........
Giles has been singing and playing across UK and Europe since the
sixties. His band The Aviators is a funky trio steeped in early
Chicago blues. Earthy slide and steel guitars, a unique rack harmonica
style, a passionate Howling Wolf-style voice, adventurous bass and
drums right up front in the mix create the unmistakable Aviators
sound.
