The Heroes

The Heroes

Martin Harley Band

Martin Harley Band

Martin Harley is a singer/songwriter whose music draws on influences from old time blues and folk to world music to make a sound that feels so familiar you think you've grown up with it. Tight harmonies and snaking rhythms on the world's smallest drum kit and obscure instrumentation from Peter Swatton weave their way around the guitar. The lineup is completed by double bass and balalaika bass, sometimes bowed, sometimes beaten by Graeme Ross. An obvious love of music and an almost telepathic level of communication between this unusual three-piece make from a dynamic live performance.

Duncan Oakley

Duncan Oakley

Terrific musical comedy from this star of ITV's Comedy Cafe. He uses his talents and a guitar to take the audience on a poptastic journey through the history of the charts. From Presley to Pulp, and Coldplay to Chas 'n' Dave, he parodies the lot to hilarious effect.

Steve Day

Steve Day

The stand-up circuit's only deaf comedian. If there is another one, he hasn't heard! He brings his own inimitable brand of humour. A vibrant and energetic performer, Steve utilises his deafness to produce tears of laughter from his audience.

Andrew Bird (1)

Andrew Bird (1)

Relaxed and improvisatory, Andrew Bird is one of those rare comedians who makes friends with his audiences in an instant. Childlike, witty and incredibly perceptive, ' If the ‘mates chatting down the pub’ style of conversational comedy is your bag, you can’t go far wrong with Andrew Bird.' - Chortle

Maybeshewill

DIY instrumental rock from Leicester.
