Boxstock 5 sees the UK's annual cigar box festival
going back to its roots, with a relaxed one day event with a workshop or two,

the festival is hosted by the Musician, and the evening show welcomes back the
most entertaining of entertainers, Vinylhed, the twangtastic King Size Slim,
and for the first time on UK soil from the USA, the inspiring Justin Johnson!
The daytime event also includes open mic sessions and
is free entry, with evening gig tickets priced at just £10.

Formed in the early ’80s by ex-Dictators guitarist
Scott Kempner, the Del Lords combined elements of ’60s garage rock with
country, blues, and folk influences to become one of the initial progenitors of
roots rock.
”We didn’t start with any agenda, other than to make
a great record,” Scott Kempner says of the Del-Lords’ unexpected return to action
following a two-decade layoff, which has yielded Elvis Club, the band’s first new album
since 1990.
Elvis Club finds
the New York-bred foursome pretty much picking up where they left off,
embodying the same musical swagger and true-believer passion that originally
made them one of America’s most compelling rock ’n’ roll bands, while adding a
new sense of experience and perspective that lends new depth to Kempner’s
personally-charged songwriting and the band’s infectiously gritty urban
garage-roots-rock.
