19:30 – 20:30 THE NEIL C

YOUNG TRIO UK based fusion guitarist Neil C Young has established himself as a composer, arranger, and musician on both the British scene and international stage.

The Neil C. Young Trio have been performing since 2005 and continue to perform at venues up and down the length of the UK.

21:00 – 22:00 THE JAKE LEG JUG BAND The Jake Leg Jug Band bring you the authentic sounds of 1920s and 30s America – Blues, Jazz, Gospel, Ragtime – and put their own twist on it. Songs of murder, betrayal, gambling, liquor and redemption. After self-releasing their debut album, the band signed to one of the UK’s top independent labels, recording 3 albums as part of the ‘Vintage Recording Project’ – essentially recording live-around ribbon microphones, as it would have been back in the 1930s. A further three albums were released in the last four years including their first-ever live album. 2022 marked the 10th anniversary of the band and saw them play 100 gigs, taking in dates from Scotland to Cornwall and South Wales to Suffolk.

“The band mesh together like a well-oiled machine. Smokin’!” SPIRAL EARTH
