About Brian Auger
Artist Biography
Brian Auger arrived on the London scene in the early '60s, right in the thick of the blues and R&B revival that led directly to the British Invasion of 1964. Auger wasn't directly part of that trend, but his swinging, jazzy keyboards remained at the fringes of British rock through the 1960s. His roots were in R&B-inflected jazz (a sound identified with the first two-thirds of the '60s), and he thrived during the late '60s and into the 1970s by playing adventurous, progressive music, either with his Oblivion Express or as a duet with a rotating group of singers. Auger kept on this track for decades, swinging between jazz, rock, and R&B, playing regular gigs (either on his own or as support) and recording on occasion.
