What's On Sunday 28th January in Bristol

Events on Sunday 28th January

“It was on the “French & Saunders” TV show that the unlikely duo Raw Sex was born. As Dawn and Jennifer’s house band, Simon Brint and Rowland Rivron played father and son Ken and Duane Bishop with Ken (Brint) on keyboards and the slobby, often drunken Duane (Rivron) on bongos. During their time on the show, the duo performed skits as Abba and The Pet Shop Boys but it was as the shambolic Ken And Duane that they are most affectionately remembered. The act developed as an act in its own right outside French & Saunders and such was their popularity they even made a feature film “There’s No Business” (1994) which has become a cult comedy classic.”

“A host of the brightest new poetry talent in the South West will take to the stage after taking part in daytime workshops with our headliner. A brilliant chance to see the exciting emerging artists that Bristol has to offer.”

“Is this the first country rocker from Austria we’ve welcomed? Whatever, there’s the epic sweep of big forests and high mountains in Prinz Grizzley’s powerful ballads and a real Appalachian twang to his Alpine Americana.”

“The Hot Club de Clifton returns to its last-Sunday-of-the-month slot after the Christmas break. Business as usual with Jonny Bruce, Riann Vosloo and Denny Ilett in the house band. Jam session for the second set. All welcome. Bring your horns, strings and vocal chords!!”

“Fatso Jetson formed in the wee hours of 1994 after Tony Tornay, and cousins Mario and Larry Lalli spent way too much time together playing pool, drinking shitty beer and watching TV in the after hours at Mario and Larry's nightclub, "Rhythm & Brews.” They decided that since they already played the appropriate instruments, that their time would be better spent playing music instead of eternally making double-or-nothing bets on a crummy pool table and watching History Channel documentaries.”
