Doors 7:30pm, Show 8:00pm

Roots-Rock & roll group The Buffalo Skinners are on tour with their fourth album: Picking Up What You’re Putting Down. The band mixes earthy accordion and fiddle tones with bluesy Fender Rhodes keys and guitar, their signature vocal harmonies freshly augmented by new members Clare Quinn & Rebecca Philip. On Picking Up What You’re Putting Down, The Buffalo Skinners find themselves fully submerged in a lively electric sound that they had only previously dipped their toes into, on tracks like Cease Your Dreaming’s ‘Monkey On Your Back.’

"Their music is painted vividly across a broad canvas, using a palette that draws easily from traditional folk and rock’n’roll." - God Is In the TV

"They just got the crowd going and had a roaring reception. Astonishing." - Janice Long, BBC Radio 2

"Buskers made good!" - Steve Lamacq, BBC 6Music

"There's maturity and complexity to the writing." - R2 Magazine

FFTP - otherwise known as Maxine & Chezney are a hugely adored anarchic folk duo known for causing devilish mayhem wherever they play. Join these beautifully skilled musicians for a night of rousing folk crescendos, foot stomping rhythms and a healthy side of banter.

Their self-penned tunes and songs are steeped in Celtic music traditions and present-day stories, and paint a picture from the modern day communities they come from.

The Mighty High Times are Jim Evans, Joe Shoemark and Boggy Alexander. Finger-picked raw electric blues with a smattering of folk and county. Imagine Doc Watson or Mississippi John Hurt plugged in, turned up and backed up with walking double bass and drums. They are also three fifths of Bristol band of folkies, Poor Old Dogs.
