|  | Dave Kelly One of the very best blues vocalists and slide guitarists this country has produced.Dave is well known for his 20+ years with The Blues Band but from the beginning he's played with some of the greatest blues artists in the world - including Howling Wolf, John Lee Hooker, Son House & Buddy Guy.He's had his own Dave Kelly Band on and off for over 20 years, as well as performing solo and touring an acoustic blues duo show with Paul Jones - this man simply lives and loves the blues!
When The Blues Band was formed in 1979, the post of slide guitarist and joint vocalist was a foregone conclusion, Dave Kelly's guitar and vocals form the very backbone of The Blues Band's distinctive sound.
Today, after 21 years 'treading the boards' with the band, with his solo albums, duo tours with Paul Jones, and soundtrack work (for commercials and such projects as BBC TV's 'King of the Ghetto' and the Comic Strip's 'Strike!') Dave Kelly is firmly estabished as Europe's premier blues performer. 8pm - 10.30pm adv £10.00 from 01202 631912 |

|  | Lisa Mills & Ian Jennings Lisa Mills from Mobile Alabama is an exceptional singer and songwriter singing in Janis Joplins first band 'Big Brother and the Holding Company' after Janis' demise performing all of the Janis Joplin parts, while given the freedom to give her own interpretation of the music. She toured with BBHC for three years throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe. She has been compared to Etta James, Billie Holiday and Brenda Lee but her main comparison is an extraordinary vocal similarity to Bonnie Raitt.
Led Zeppelins Robert Plant found her and had no hesitation in asking her to open his American stadium shows - they have performed on the same bills across the US and Europe. Lisa also appeared with Dr John on his UK tour last October and, although she has played in front of more than 40,000 people Lisa admits to liking it best when she can connect with her audience. Accompanied by Ian Jennings of Big Town Playboys/Jeff Beck/Van Morrison/Eric Clapton fame on upright Bass we are all in for a treat! Take Robert Plants advice 'You should all check her out - she has a wonderful voice'. 8pm - 10.30pm adv £8.00 |

|  | Stipe A consistantly popular and professional act Stipes audiences grow with every appearance, and rightly so - a fantastic night of classic REM. One of the biggest bands to emerge from the 70's, REM, with their charismatic singer Michael Stipe ( complete with blue stripe across his face!) proceeded to tear the singles and album charts up with those famous hit melodies and establish themselves as world class musicians. Well, this is Stipe and REM is what they do -very well! They are the UKs foremost REM tributes playing 2 hours of all the classics. You'll find yourself singing along to songs you didn't realise you knew - 'Man on the Moon', Losing my Religion', 'Everybody Hurts' and many, many more. A superb stage show not to be missed by any serious REM fan.
Some reviews from Stipes gig at The Limelight, Crewe....
'By the time the band started there must have been at least 400 people there'
'A packed venue with high expectations to hear the music of the world's greatest band - R.E.M., take it from me they were not disappointed.'
'Stipe's outstanding performance of R.E.M. music is second to none, not to be missed, 'if you love R.E.M. then Stipe is never going to let you forget it'. 8pm - 11pm adv £10.00 |
