Sat 26

The Priory Inn - Real ale and local drinks

 

A celebration of our local drinks between 1.00pm and 5.00pm. There’ll be plenty of real ales, ciders and wines plus great food to enjoy whilst taking in the music….

50 Percent Balls - a local 4-piece band comprising guitar, banjo, bass and harmonica who enjoy playing unlikely versions of well-known songs - originally a bluegrass outfit, the band has slithered into neighbouring genres - Jody Veale (harmonica and backing vocals), Paul Jameson (guitar, lead and backing vocals), Danny Ball (electric bass) and Andy Ball (banjo, harmonica, lead and backing vocals)

Lament - who stir up a wonderful evocative concoction of irresistible world grooves and Latin fever. They cross boundaries mixing up gypsy and Latin rhythms refusing to be labelled as any particular genre blending jazz, ethnic groove and flamenco styles all underscoring memorable and original melodic songs tinged with lyrical melancholy but always managing to come out joyous and life affirming.
