Kevin Montgomery & Tommy Allsup
£14adv
www.kevinmontgomery.com
In 1959, guitarist Tommy Allsup lost the flip of a coin for a seat on a plane. It was on the Buddy Holly flight which crashed, killing Buddy, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. Kevin’s dad wrote songs with Buddy, before The Crickets and Kevin has always featured those songs in his live set. The show begins acoustically with Kevin and Tommy, being joined for the second part of the show by Danny White on bass and Paul Griffith on drums. |

Salmagundi
£5
plus RB Morris
www.salmagundilive.co.uk
Seven talented musicians who, with great panache, create music full of interest and energy- music that’s very much their own, but revels in a world of influences, from czardas to ska, samba to tango, and all stops between.With a dynamic all-female front line – powerful vocals, saxes, violin, trombone, clarinet, accordion, and a deeply groovy backline, it makes for a big sound- dancey and multi -layered. Salmagundi have played many venues and festivals including The Big Session, Buddhafield, Riverside, One World - a band not to be missed.

Chris Conway & The Super Session
£4adv £5door
www.chrisconway.org
Chris Conway is an extraordinary singer songwriter with songs that cast a spell and amuse, delivered with a soulful voice reminiscent of David Crosby or James Taylor, and extraordinary musicianship on a host of instruments. He presents a two part program. In the first half Chris Conway features some of his best loved songs from his 8 albums and new ones from his latest Songs for Dreamers CD. In the second half he gathers a circle of old friends, top singer songwriters in their own right, to exchange songs and stories, playing solo and together. In the circle tonight is Dan Britton, Andy Griffiths and Neil Rabjohn (from Smallbear). It should be a great session.
