Jess Silk

Friday 22nd September 2023  Doors 7pm

Jess Silk is a guitarist, singer and songwriter from the Black Country. Her melodic brand of folk/punk music often has her being likened to a female Frank Turner or Billy Bragg, and it gets people sitting up and listening. Armed only with an increasingly sticker-covered acoustic guitar and a distinctive, gravely voice that many don’t expect, Jess appeared at Glastonbury in 2022 and will be supporting the Levellers ( acoustic ) on their 2023 tour.

The Leylines

Friday 29th September 2023  Doors 7pm

Founded in 2013 by a group of musicians combining their individual musical styles into something that isn’t quite folk, sort of punk but 100% heart-pounding revelry. This unique sound (combined with lyrics ranging from social issues, life on the road and partying with friends) launched the band into the heart of the UK live music community and made them firm favourites of the festival circuit.

3 Daft Monkeys

Saturday 30th September 2023  Doors 7pm

With their quirky and original approach to music, and their passion, intensity and sheer joy of life, 3 Daft Monkeys have gained themselves a large and loyal cult following. Their music is hard to pigeon-hole, mixing and crossing many musical genres from Celtic, Klezmer, Gypsy, Balkan, Latin, Ska, Dub Reggae, Indie, Rock and even a hint of Shostakovich. 3 Daft Monkeys have always maintained an independent and cottage-industry approach to their musical career, and have gained a huge following whilst ploughing their own furrow through the music business, gaining momentum through their live performances and intensive European touring schedule.
