In Photos: Danny & The Champions of The World + Marcus Bonfanti @ Bush Hall, London (22.09.11)

Former Grand Drive frontman Danny Wilson brought his Champions of The World band – which counts members of Americana also-rans Goldrush in its ranks – to London's Bush Hall last week in support of their recently-released third LP Hearts & Arrows. That record's lead single 'You Don't Know (My Heart Is in The Right Place)' certainly packs a punch live, and Wilson showed he still has a tight grasp of melody with a meaty set in the vein of kindred spirits Drive-By Truckers (and, more obviously, Bruce Springsteen) in its no-nonsense approach to rocking out.

Support on the night came from local blues rocker (and brand new dad) Marcus Bonfanti, and you can view a slideshow of Anni Timms' shots of both acts below.
