PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS SHOW IS NOW SOLD OUT

Will this woman ever stop producing great records? It would appear not... Kim Richey's new album 'Wreck Your Wheels' contains six songs that grab you straight away and a further five that sneak up on you while you aren't looking and make you adore them before you know what's happened. It's talent like that which makes it easy to think we could put Kim on every month and get a full house every time.

As if Kim Richey solo wasn't enough, we suspect she will be joined for this gig by Jez Ashurst on guitar as well as the Danish bass-monster, Henrik Irgens. We saw this line-up in Camden Town a few weeks back and have had a warm, fuzzy feeling about it ever since. Half of the tickets for this show have already (i.e. 31st July) been sold, so click that link on the left before you miss the chance.

Alex Berger is one of those musicians that defies description, really. Torch songs, jaunty jazz sing-a-longs, material that could have been written by Cole Porter next to tunes that Randy Newman would be proud of. 

British, but somewhat of a king-pin in the New York scene that we often trumpet, Alex's enthusiasm is very infectious and when he's not playing he is organising charity concerts and writers' retreats for the many talents that The Big Apple has to offer. 

We're not sure if we dreamed it, but we're pretty sure he mentioned bringing a string quartet along to accompany his passionate, strident piano playing and mellifluous vocals. Now that would be a treat.

With named influences such as Townes Van Zandt, Big Bill Broonzy and Hank Williams, you know pretty much what you're going to get from Mark Wynn. His guitar and vocal styles are unnervingly similar to the late, great Van Zandt and he's clearly been drawing his inspiration largely from the American folk tradition.

But this lad from York ("Old York" perhaps tonight, to properly avoid confusion!) writes a mean song and plays with a relaxed gusto which suggests that despite appearances, he is in fact an old hand. You can imagine him busking on a rainy city afternoon, on strings that are more rust than steel, playing for the love and experience of it as well as to earn enough cash to buy a pastie and some new strings. That's why we've booked him, the boy's got soul coming out of every pore. You don't get that just by copying.
