Blodwyn Pig is a British blues rock band that first came into prominence in the late 1960s. Founded by guitarist and vocalist Mick Abrahams after his departure from Jethro Tull in 1969, the band was marked by a distinctive blend of blues, jazz, and rock influences. The group's original lineup consisted of Abrahams, Jack Lancaster on wind instruments, Andy Pyle on bass, and Ron Berg on drums. They quickly gained attention with the release of their debut album "Ahead Rings Out," which showcased their unique sound and impressive musicianship.

The band's early work is celebrated for its raw energy and innovative approach to blues-rock. Their sophomore album "Getting to This" further cemented their position in the British rock scene with its eclectic mix of sounds and styles. Over the years, Blodwyn Pig's lineup saw various changes, and despite the fact that they never quite matched the initial commercial success of their earliest records, they maintain a devoted fan base. Their music has been rediscovered and appreciated anew through various remasters and compilations, with releases like "Pigthology" and the "Radio Sessions '69 to '71" offering fans a glimpse into their dynamic live performances and the band's evolving sound across their career.
