ROD PICOTT



support Farewell

 Fairground

on


Saturday 6th

 February, 2016
 

It has been 16 years since Rod Picott laid down his work belt, picked up an acoustic guitar and put a permanent end to his gig as a sheet rock hanger.  He'd been writing music in private for years, but it was 2001's Tiger Tom Dixon Blues - a debut album that bridged the gap between folk and Americana - that officially introduced him as a singer/ songwriter, kick starting one of the more acclaimed careers in modern day roots music.  Since then, he has focused on a different kind of construction: building a catalogue of songs that spin stories of hard work, heartache and the human condition.
Since 2001 he has recorded seven albums the latest of which, 'Fortune' was released in September 2015.  With 'Fortune' he focuses in himself, strips bare what he found rattling around his heart and invites the listener to follow a deeper and more intimate journey.  The album has won 4 and 5 star reviews across the UK Music Press.
Live he his thoroughly entertaining, whilst his songs tell a story and make you think, his banter between songs makes you laugh and smile
Support will come from popular Hull trio Farewell Fairground, who are an acoustic band full of uniqueness, harmonies and charisma.  They are influenced by a range of artists such as Kodaline, Mumford & Sons and Kings of Leon.
Advance tickets are priced at £11.00.  Tickets can be obtained from the One Stop store in the town, from Brian on 01652 649230 or from www.wegottickets.com
They will be £13.00 on the door


and appearing next time at


TOWN HALL LIVE 


LAUREN HOUSLEY and

 her Band

on Saturday 27th February

Lauren Housley is a rising star of the UK music scene.  She has recently been heard on the Terry Wogan (in session), Chris Evans, Bob Harris and Jeremy Vine shows on BBC Radio 2.
Lauren sings a soulful blend of blues and Americana and is compared to the likes of Bonnie Raitt, Elkie Brooks and Dusty Springfield.
She will be appearing with her band that consists of Thomas Dibb on guitars, Mark Lewis on bass, Chris Hillman on pedal steel, dobro and mandolin and Craig Hanson on drums.
Live, her voice is as powerful and subtle as can be heard on her album 'Sweet Surrender'.  She creates music that crosses over soul, blues, country and rock barriers, whilst all the time reaching out to the mainstream.
Support will come from Leeds University music student Skye, who first appeared at Town Hall Live as a 16 year old in 2012.
Advance Tickets for this concert will be £12.00, and can be obtained from the usual outlets.
Following the Lauren Housley concert are two acts that played sold out concerts in 2015.
First up on Saturday 19th March is CALLAGHAN
and then on Friday 8th April we welcome back

New music from Manhaton for 2016


New music from Manhaton for 2016

2015 has been a very busy year for the staff at Manhaton, and we see no reason why 2016 will be any different.

Successful records from Robin Trower with "Something's About To Change" and King King with "Reaching For The Light" have made their mark with both fans and the music media.
In 2016 we will release a brand new album from the evergreen Robin Trower, titled "Where You Are Going To" and I must say the demos already sound terrific!

King King’s album “Reaching For the Light” was selected in the Top 50 Albums of the year in both Classic Rock magazine and its sister publication The Blues Magazine
King King go from strength to strength, and as a real reward for their hard work in recent years they've accepted an arena tour with 90's rock band Thunder in February - something the guys are very excited about. Alan has been a big Thunder fan for some time! This will be followed by a headline tour in May, featuring an opening set from the amazing Dan Patlansky
Later in 2016 the band will release their first live CD/DVD, which will be shot and edited in April.
King King - Reaching For The Light
 
Robin Trower - Something's About To Change
Stevie Nimmo - Sky Won't Fall
Both Ben Poole and our new signing Stevie Nimmo will release new albums in the early part of 2016. This will coincide with a joint mammoth co-headline tour of the UK.

"Time Has Come" will be the follow up to Ben's popular "Live At The Albert Hall" album from October 2014.

Stevie marks his first Manhaton release with "Sky Won't Fall". A fresh and varied LP, recorded with Wayne Proctor at Superfly Studios.

Hat Fitz & Cara continue to put together album number four, and will return for a few select shows in April/May to promote the new album. More news on that soon. Festivals will be added over the Summer. 
Finally, we'd like to welcome New Yorker Sari Schorr to our roster of acts. Sari was introduced to Manhaton records by legendary producer Mike Vernon (Fleetwood Mac, John Mayall).
“Sari Schorr is the embodiment of the best the blues and beyond has to offer. Sari is definitely the next big blues diva that will sweep through the blues scene” Dave Fields Big City Blues New York.
New York hall of fame inductee Sari is working on a new album with Mike and her band The Engine Room, which we look forward to releasing in September. Have a look here
