The bar is fully stocked, offering a curated selection of drinks to suit every taste. Whether it’s a soul-stirring musical, a night of side-splitting comedy, or a captivating piece of theatre, or a beautifully film on cinema night, this is a space where live performance comes to life—up close and electric. Come for the show. Stay for the magic. Early Bird tickets available until 3 August New Group Ticket for 6 or more Sep 4th Will Wilde – Blues £0.00 – £23.00 Book Now > Wilde was nominated "Instrumentalist of the Year" in the UK Blues Awards 2024. MUSIC – Blues Croft hall – Early Bird Tickets from £20 Organise Friends and pay £19 Will Wilde is a force to be reckoned with – a phenomenal harmonica player with a voice to match. Will’s intense harmonica style steals the spotlight from the traditional blues rock guitar, with a sound that owes as much to Gary Moore as it does to Sonny Boy Williamson. “I’m always looking to make new sounds with the harmonica, pushing its boundaries, trying to change people’s perception of it.” In fact Will has gone one step further and created his own signature “Wilde Tuned” harmonicas so he can play licks that weren’t possible before.

Cold Flame – Jethro Tull Tribute & Original Music

"Love that Jethro Tull sound that Cold Flame capture ever so well" Dan James, Radio Wales. ‘Cold Flame perform the music of Jethro Tull’ – The Show Today, having been part of the tribute circuit since 1998, Cold Flame are acknowledged as the premier Jethro Tull tribute band in the UK. They continue to perform both electric and occasional acoustic Jethro Tull tribute shows across the country and remain open to touring in mainland Europe whether in a public or private setting. Whilst showcasing both classic electric and acoustic Jethro Tull music, the band also attempt to capture some of the theatre that also made Jethro Tull such a unique live force within the music business. In considering the vast Tull music repertoire, Cold Flame specialise in highlighting songs from many of the early Tull albums between 1968 and 1980 including ‘Stand Up’, ‘Aqualung’ ‘Thick as a Brick’ and ‘Songs from the Wood’ alongside various lesser known gems from across the decades in a two hour plus show that highlights musical diversity, humour and uniqueness – traits that conjure up the very essence and appeal of Jethro Tull live. The band continue to vary setlists year on year ensuring that shows remain fresh and continue to include song and stage craft surprises complementing the extensive Jethro Tull back catalogue. This attention to detail comes from a determination to put on a show that will appeal to all fans of Jethro Tull as much as possible both from a musical and visual level.
