The Scaramanga Six,The Carol Hodge Band
Rumble up the Ryshworth - A stunning line-up of live music on your Bingley Crossflatts doorstep.
The Scaramanga Six play a tuneful and carefully arranged mixture of heavy rock, vocal pop, rockabilly, garage and crooner songs described as “intense-yet-aloof rock operas” (Drowned In Sound) and “B-movie chic combined with real musical muscle” (Kerrang).
The Carol Hodge Band were recently described by Classic Rock as “combin(ing) fat, fuzzy guitar grooves with splashes of synths…clever pop rock bursts and almost Alice In Chains-y shadows…eccentric and unpredictable, in a way that feels totally natural.”
Pay What You Feel - all money goes to the artists.
Help us build a scene, and support a local venue.
Bands finish in time for you to get the last train/bus back to #saltaire, #shipley #leeds, #bradford, #keighley, #skipton
Music and conversation continues until close.
From: 19:30
Price: Pay What You Feel
