Cider Festival

Ouze Valley Singles Club from 9pm. influenced by the long forgotten sounds & traditions of 1950's skittle (google it) they combine this sound with the energy of punk and the swing of rock and roll, whilst occasionally dropping some reggae flavour into the mix. Then layering this with hilarious Folk-like-story-telling, often crossing the parameters of what is deemed to be politically correct but keeping it very tongue in cheek. Think 'George Formby meets The Clash'
