30th July
Free
feat.
The Most Ugly Child, The Outwoods County Riders and The Ruby Doos
Folks
we go country and a bit old timey. Opening the night are close part harmony
trio ’The Ruby Doos’, expect contemporary and classic songs with a retro twist,
ranging from early bluegrass through 50#s harmony swing and heartbreak ballads.
Next
up your very own Chickenhead promoters and resident band The Outwoods County
Riders. Armed with a sack full of new songs, the boys offer their version of
countryfied Americana as only they can.
Rounding
off the night we have, from the dust bowl regions of Nottingham, ‘The Most Ugly
Child’. Brought together by a mutual appreciation for the revival of old
time country and bluegrass music, the group centre around the partnership
of singer/songwriters Daniel Wright & Stevie-Leigh Goodison. Influenced
by the high and lonesome sounds of Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark and George
Jones, the pair have been likened to some of the great male/female country duos
of yesteryear, such as Johnny and June Carter-Cash. Their original
material blends seamlessly with old time country classics and listening to
Daniel’s own ‘Bluebird’ you could be forgiven for thinking it was penned by the
late great Hank Williams himself.
Remember;
always check with the venue before travelling:
