THE HILLMANS

A blues trio from the Isle Of Wight, who, since forming two years ago  as an occasional fun and functions band, have proved so popular that they are in constant demand. This is hardly surprising as they feature three r&b veterans, including the legendary Dick Taylor,

guitarist with the Pretty Things and an original member of the Rolling Stones!

 

SHANNONDOVE

This new virtuoso celtic/bluegrass folk trio, which features the dazzling playing of brothers Rob and James Bowman, rose from the ashes of Donnybrook Fair, for many years the finest Irish band in Northamptonshire. Playing a diverse range of folk and americana songs and instrumentals, Shannondove's spirited performances are guaranteed

to raise the roof wherever they play

 

SKA MITE

An amalgam of some of Northampton's most seasoned musicians, Ska Mite are the perfect band for a summer week-end afternoon, with their sunny renditions of ska, reggae and rock classics. Led by silky smooth singer Ray Hue, this accomplished and popular five piece band are guaranteed to blow the blues away and bring a smile to your face.
