There's no British Equivalent of this band is there?

Probably because there is no British equivalent of Texas.

Closest I can think if you threw Motorhead and Dr Feelgood in a blender for a minute or two, poured, and topped up the glass with Foghat.

But that's not it, really. It would be like an American in a pub asking for Miller High LIfe and the publican says 'not known here sir - have a Carling Black label...'

Blind Willie Johnson, Fenton Robinson, T Bone Walker, Lightnin' Hopkins, Freddie King and Blind Lemon Jefferson amongst others. Mighty fine line.
