Tuesday 22nd October Doors 8pm Saturday 12th October Doors 8pm Mike Zito, Devon Allman, Cyril Neville ~ The soul of the south. Amplified soul for the new generation Before they even hit a chord, The Royal Southern Brotherhood have your attention. In the US South, where music is religion, two rock ‘n’ roll bloodlines tower above all others. In the saloon bars from Mississippi to Maryland, mere mention of the Allman and Neville Brothers casts a magic spell. Conversation falls silent. Pool balls stop rolling. Ten-gallon hats are tipped in respect and beer-bottles raised in salute. These aren’t just bands, they’re gods, and with a lineup comprising both the iconic Cyril Neville and Devon Allman, The Royal Southern Brotherhood come pre-loaded with expectations. Don’t worry: they can match them. The family tree might be auspicious, but this new band trades on talent, not genealogy. It’s not about rock history: it’s about the here-and-now Friday 27th September Doors 8pm Tickets £15.00 Page 5 Having recently celebrated 30 years of Breaking Albert Lee's impeccable country music and rock pedigree Glass, HAZEL O'CONNOR embarks on her stretches back over more than 40 years.
