14 Dec 2012 - Rock & Pop at The Yardbird
The Atlantic Players
The Atlantic Players play old school Rhythm and Blues and Southern Soul classics. Hugely influenced by Stax, Willie Mitchell and generally most things from Memphis circa 1966. In our inaugural year we have had the pleasure in supporting Geno Washington, Booker T and the Mighty Steve Cropper, shared the bill with Craig Charles, Smoove and Turrell, Haggis Horns and Stone Foundation.
The Line-Up - Mick Laffoley on drums. Steve ‘Pretty Boy’ Bates on trumpet, Paul ‘Red’ Redding on bass and Andy Vine on keyboards. Keith Owen on guitar and backing vocals and Kate O’Malley on sax, flute and backing vocals. All led by Hugh ‘Swoop’ Blackwood Jr. on lead vocals. If you are partial to a bit of Southern Soul, check The Atlantics out!
DJ’S – Rock The Jazbah
Every Friday night resident DJ’s Billy Chill Fingers and Richie Re-Issue bring you the tightest funk, soul and rock’n’roll, hiphop, beats and swing, alongside top UK and international bands playing funk, hiphop, ska, reggae and worldwide grooves.
Doors: 8pm-2am / Free Entry
