Remember the tracks that defined a generation?
The world that we had grown up with changed forever in 1977. Punk ushered in a new dawn with post punk / Indie / New Wave / SKA revival and goth bands dominating the music we listened to. This change was radical and irrevocable. It also changed us. Come and celebrate the music that was so important to our generation.
Red Light Green Light
Red Light Green Light a three piece Wellington based band that have mastered the art of covering tunes whilst keeping their musical identity. Red Light Green Light are Steve Ogilvie (vocals/guitar/bass), Mark Jardine (vocals/guitar) and Rupert Sells (drums/percussion). Steve has a thriving solo career and played Glastonbury among other festivals last summer. Among Mark’s acting career credits include an appearance in the Joy Division biopic ‘Control’. He plays a manager of other bands. Perhaps the Ian Curtis vocal vibe came through this worthy cinematic experience or through being a fan back in the day, either way, Mark’s vocal style suits.
Llongstone Moon
Llongstone Moon are a band with a growing reputation. Having played a wide number of venues across Devon, this 4 piece is going from strength to strength. They are Andy (guitar, vocals), Keith (guitar, vocals), Steph (keyboard) and Dave Heath (vocals, drums)
David Craig
Dave Craig is a great entertainer. Picking only bangers and sing along tunes he really gets the crowd up.
Billy Blagg and the Jammed
Billy Blagg and the Jammed offers tribute to the legendary song writing talents of Billy Bragg and Paul Weller. Andy Bell, the Bard of Butts Close, renders the icon work of these two artists in a stripped back acoustic style.
DJ Dennis
