“With a delicious roast dinner and great tunes, sit back and enjoy the entertainment courtesy of Bristol legends Smerins Anti Social Club. And yes we booked them for a Sunday Social because we really wanted to write that headline! They’ve been firing up festival crowds and gig-goers across the land for the past 15 years with their inimitable blend of brass-heavy funk, swing, rock, drum ‘n’ bass, and ska.”

“Joe Strouzer sings songs from his travels from Newcastle to New Orleans and a hell of a lot of places in between. His driving resonator guitar is coupled with true harmonica voodoo and biting songwriting of modern trouble, heartpains, moonlit trysts, drinking and devilment, peppered with a rich history of blues.”
