Moonlight of any colour…

would have struggled to shine through the rain on Thursday night, but we had some sparking talent on stage as M.G. Boulter brought his brand new Blood Moon EP to The Greystones on Thursday night. Thanks to Matt, Lizzy and Paul, plus Buffalo Ghost for a fine opening set, and those who braved the weather to join us.

WagonWheel Presents… returns to The Backroom on Tuesday October 30th when we welcome back Rachel Harrington with support from Boss Caine. Our next show however finds us at Shakespeares on Friday October 19th in the company of John Statz, Megan Burtt and A Prayer Away. You can find full details for this one here, tickets are on sale here. We hope you can join us too.

Last week it was dogs…

and this week we had those BearCats in The Backroom. Big thanks to them and Bob Collum & The Welfare Mothers plus Ryan Farmer for another great night, not forgetting all of you who joined us at The Greystones.

We’ll be back there on Thursday September 20th for our next show, when joining WagonWheel Presents… will be M.G. Boulter and Buffalo Ghost. You can find full details for this show here. We hope you can join us then.

 

The preview promised…

another electric headline show from The Fargo Railroad Co., and they duly delivered last night. A fabulous first gig from The Swells and fine opening set from Benjamin William Pike added up to a great time all round. Big thanks to all of them, and everyone who came along (including Colin).

WagonWheel Presents… is back at The Greystones this coming Saturday September 1st when we’re joined by The BearCats, Bob Collum & The Welfare Mothers and Ryan Farmer. We’re fully expecting more good times, advance tickets priced at just £5 are available here. You can read the full preview for the show here. Maybe we’ll see you then?

12 acts and 2 stages…

added up to a very Sociable Sunday at Shakespeares yesterday. Thanks to everybody who joined us in the sunshine for great music from The Fargo Railroad Co., Hazjak, Ash Mountain, Boss Caine, Buffalo Ghost, Andy P. Davison, Tsar Nicholas III & The Exiles, Charlie Tophill, Richard Dilks, William Barstow, Hungarian Lanterns and Gemma Gray.

Our next show sees us back at The Greystones on Saturday August 25th with The Fargo Railroad Co., The Swells and Benjamin William Pike. We’re also there just a week late on Saturday September 1st with The BearCats, Bob Collum & The Welfare Mothers and Ryan Farmer. Tickets for both these shows (and more) are on sale here now. We hope you can join us for at least one of them.

As far as…

300th gigs go, that wasn’t a bad way to do it. Jody Davies, Big Convoy and Joe Armitage performing “in the round” at Shakespeares on Friday made for another magic singer/songwriter night. Big thanks to all of them and everybody who joined us.

WagonWheel Presents… will be back on July 22nd for a special “Sunday Social” at Shakespeares, twelve acts over two stages of free live music from The Fargo Railroad Co., Ash Mountain, Buffalo Ghost, Tsar Nicholas III & The Exiles, Richard Dilks & The Revelators, Hungarian Lanterns, Hazjak, Boss Caine, Charlie Tophill, Andy P. Davison, William Barstow and Gemma Gray. Keep an eye on the Gigs page for details along with updates on a few more shows coming later in the year.

They came, they sawed…

thankfully it wasn’t a folk singer’s leg, and hopefully Kirsty McGee & Quiet Loner conquered a few new fans at The Greystones last night. Thanks to them and Charlie Tophill who opened the show with first of three fine sets of the evening.

We’ll be back on Friday June 15th when WagonWheel Presents… returns to Shakespeares for an “in the round” show with Jody Davies, Big Convoy‘s Mat Wale & John Batchelor, and Joe Armitage. Full details on this show can be found here. We hope you can join us then.

So in the end…

it proved to be only 60% of a weekender, but what we were left with was pretty special. Thanks to everybody that joined us on Friday and Saturday, not least Rod Picott, Boss Caine, M&J Blues, Andy P. Davison, Franc Cinelli, The Fargo Railroad Co. and The Lucky Strikes for the exceptional entertainment.

Sadly the weather put paid to Sunday’s two gigs at The Greystones, and left us hanging on 298 WagonWheel Presents… shows promoted. But we’ll be back for more very soon. Next will likely be Monday May 14th when we welcome Kirsty McGee & Quiet Loner. Keep an eye on the Gigs page for details of this and more new shows we’ll be adding over the next few weeks.
