‘JULY 2013’

 

DATE	BAND
Tues Evening	Jam & Open Mic Night.  Musicians come & join in – ALL genres welcome – backline provided which includes 1 x Drum kit, 1 x bass amp plus 1 x guitar amp, please bring own instruments. 8.30pm start.
Sat 6th	Merlin’s Keep (Celtic Rock/Folk) Old Nicks welcome back this very talented Grimsby based band. An exuberant mix of original material with three- and four-part harmonies, covers of old favourites, and foot-stomping traditional fiddle tunes. 9pm start
Fri 12th	Acoustic Night.  Our monthly session (second Friday of each month) featuring Richard Silvester a local based talented musician who has featured on BBC Radio Lincs plus had TV appearances. He brings to life a number of instruments such as fiddle, guitar, mandolin, harmonica and bodhran singing favourite Irish, plus other folk songs. Celtic fun for all ages, starting at 10pm.  We would also like to invite those who like to have a play and join in or, if they wish, play a few songs solo before our featured guest starts (please bring your own instruments). The idea is to enjoy a nice sedate evening soaking up the easy listening music that acoustic instruments offer.  (No Electric). 8pm start
Sat 13th	Firegarden (Classic Rock/Progressive/Funk) Old Nicks welcome back this band from Sheffield as it is always a pleasure to see these guys perform.  Firegarden are a band that believe in the expression of emotion in it's purest form: live and rocking! With a multitude of influences, from classic '70's rock to absolutely anything that excites your ears. They sound ‘British’, but not slavishly so. 9pm start
Sat 20th	The Legendary Night Owls (Chicago Blues) This 5 piece hard driving, ultra tight band from Louth, featuring front man Ken Mayle who gives an outstanding performance  on harmonica and vocals, are truly legendary keeping with the spirit of the blues. Playing songs from artists such as Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf, Jimmy Witherspoon, Otis Rush, John Mayall and many more.  9pm start.
Sat 27th	Still Remains UK (Metal/Rock/Alternative) We look forward to this band’s return to play some of their originals. Their style is very much a cross between the older style metal and newer, fantastic vocals and musicianship.  9pm start

Saturday 5 November 8 pm

New Jazz 5 Presents the Karen Sharp Quartet

With Karen Sharp on tenor saxophone, Nikki Iles on piano, Dave Green on double bass & Steve Brown on drums. Since graduating from Humphrey Littleton’s band, Karen has developed into a major artist who is very much in demand judging by her busy touring schedule. She brings her new Quartet to the Drill Hall as part of an extensive UK tour, when she fronts what must be the to-die-for rhythm section of British jazz. Karen has a warm, singing tone, a melodic flair and a great sense of swing.

Tickets: £14 (£12 concessions / £7 students)
