The band's rich mix of Americana and soul is intoxicating.  Danny's voice oozes character and the Champs are all top musicians. Their 2103 album 'Stay True' was one of the year's best albums.  In 2014 they followed it up with a double live album 'Live Champs' recorded at The Jazz Café in London.  Early this year they brought out 'What Kind of Love'  which got 5 star reviews across the music press. Live they are simply flawless and take the music to another level, they are like Springsteen filtered through a stack of Stax 45's. Support will come from the charismatic Clubhouse Records artist from Rutland, Paul McClure.  The passing world is the subject of Paul's songs, in particular the loves and losses that come his way.  He is the perfect opening act for the Champs   Advance tickets are priced at £12.50.  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 £14.50 on the door and so on to 2016 ... we  have some fantastic acts  lined up for the new year.   First up is: ROD PICOTT  on Saturday 6th February Rod Picott is the son of a welder from Berwick Maine, who now lives in East Nashville.  Rod started out as a sheet rock hanger and his songs bear the real life scars of blue collared America, they are inhabited by manual workers, circus hands, boxers and working girls. Rod has toured the UK every year since 2001 and has built up a substantial following over that time.  Live he is extremely entertaining.  Whilst his songs make the listener think, his between song banter make audience members laugh and smile.  He is the complete entertainer. Support will come from the hugely popular Hull trio Farewell Fairground who, over the last 3 years have built up a large following on the north bank of the Humber and beyond. Advance Tickets for this concert will be £11.00, and can be obtained from the usual outlets. Other acts booked in 2016 include Eric Brace and Peter Cooper, Callaghan, The Mighty Doonans, The Shook Twins, Hannah Aldridge, Lynne Hanson and the Good Intentions, 10 string Symphony and Gilmore & Roberts, with more to be announced.   Bring Your Friends for a  Great Night Out and Save  on Tickets! We would like as many people as possible to come and enjoy the concerts we put on. Why not ask your friends?  Any person buying 6 tickets up to one week before any concert will get £1 off the ticket price on all tickets purchased.  This offer is available only by ringing Brian on 01652 649230 or emailing him on brianchudley@btinternet.com   Zoey T-shirt A simple declarative fashion statement.
