LAST TIME AT THE ACOUSTIC CLUB

 

THURSDAY 19th SEPTEMBER 2024

AT THE BELGIAN BREWER

6 Acts 4 Songs

Last time we were delighted to be back at the Belgian Brewer for 6 Acts in one evening.

The Function Room at the Brewer is a lovely musical space and we are always made so welcome by Nick and his team and last time was no different.

We were delighted to welcome 6 varied and distinctive acts who combined to make a wonderful evening of Live Music

One After 909

Father and Son duo Colin and James Frid are always crowd pleasers and revel in that reputation. Colin has a distinctive voice and James is one of the stand out acoustic guitarists around. Their rendition of Eleanor Ribgy will stay long in the memory. As ever an accomplished set

 

 

Rhys Wilson

Rhys is a long term favourite with the AC audience. He is a compulsive songwriter as well as a remarkable guitarist and his sets combine these two major attributes remarkably.

He performed with equal vim and vigour on both 12 String and 6 String guitar and treated us to a remarkable version of Wonderwall as a tribute to Ticketmaster and their unstoppable greed in selling Oasis Tickets.

Ryan Thwaits

Ryan Thwait has been MIA for a little while, but he has a reason for this. He has been concentrating on recording and completing his latest release ’Here With You’ and he reliably informs us it can be bootlegged from almost anywhere!

His performance was typically Ryan and filled with new songs and he proves again he is a performer we should listen to.

 

 

Trina Read

Trina is developing into a songwriter and performer who will very shortly gain the attention of some of those “Men in Suits” who take songs and put them into the public spotlight. Her output of material is prodigious and stunning, every song has meaning and purpose. A tremendous set and we hope she remembers us when those big money moguls take her under their wing and make her famous!

Peter Crossley

Peter is a multi faceted musician who brings a joy to all who listen to his songs. He is a talented finger style guitarist but when you combine the words of a poet with his prodigious musical talent you end up with songs you want to hear again and again.

 

Richard Stubbs

As one of the driving forces of Runaway Jukebox, Stubsie proved that he is a gifted singer songwriter in his own right and we had the opportunity to hear what he wants and likes. Always refreshing and one of those players you will want to hear again and again.

Many thanks to Nik and the Staff at the Belgian Brewer for making us so welcome and introducing many of the audience to his fine selection of Belgian Beers
