Telephone:  01962 867795
Event:  The Undercover Hippy - The Last Stand: UK Tour 2025 + Mad Apple Circus - 8pm - As the planet hurtles toward what feels like a never-ending season finale—chaos, climate crisis, and a world leader or two you wouldn’t trust with a toaster—The Undercover Hippy are stepping up to do what they do best: make sense of the madness, one song at a time. Based in Bristol and fronted by singer-songwriter Billy Rowan, The Undercover Hippy blend conscious lyrics with infectious grooves that hit harder than a tabloid headline. Their music fuses elements of reggae, hip-hop, and ska, serving up sharp social commentary wrapped in warm, danceable beats. Think The Specials meets Eminem, with a healthy dose of satire. But don’t let their easygoing sound fool you. The lyrics are sharp, addressing everything from corrupt politicians and corporate greed to the importance of compassion and unity in a fractured world. It’s this balance of humour and hard-hitting honesty that has won the band a dedicated fanbase across the UK and beyond.

Event:  TEENAGEWAITRESS.PPT – A Rock’n’Roll Powerpoint On Songs - Doors 7.30pm - Daniel J. Ash (Teenage Waitress) has gone and done something very stupid. He’s recorded a new album that he cannot perform. To solve this problem, and to fill his quota of anxiety-based meltdowns for the year, he has written a one-man show about his favourite subject in the world. Songs. It contains music, stories, reflections on songwriting, and visuals. When it came to how to present these various elements into a coherent show Daniel agreed that there was only one piece of software fit for the task. “It simply HAD to be Microsoft Powerpoint” he explains, “I mean have you seen those slide transitions?!?” TEENAGEWAITRESS.PPT is a playful blend of storytelling and music. In the show Daniel discusses and performs happy songs, sad songs, long songs, short songs, very short songs, stupid songs, love songs, duet songs, murder songs, song songs, and just about everything and anything in-between. ♫♪♪
