About us

This Thursday 21st June - Free N'Easy / Open Mic / Washout
It's been hectic recently, so we will be laid back this week. Start off with a shortish summary 'washout' chat about recent gigs, Upton, pros and cons,constructive comments, etc.
This week is your chance to do a solo, duet, trio or group & do that song which you have been itching to try.
Also, some of the Strummers (The Salty Dogs, Funday Rockabelles, Pam and the Piano Man) are doing cameo spots for 'Showtime' at the Lillington Fun Day on Sat 21st July, and these cameo acts are welcome to try out their sets in front of the rest of the Strummers.
Contact Dave if you want to have a go.
On the road again......
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway....
