Ma Polaine's Great Decline at The Queens Head,Belper.March 29th. 8.00pm. Support from Tony Stark and Nicolette Shae. £8.

7/3/2019

 
Picture
Hard to pigeon hole is probably an understatement when it comes to describing Ma Polaine's blend of blues roots and original writing although one critic imagined a young Billie Holiday gatecrashing Tom Waits in Swordfish Trombones mode.
The influences are there from blues to Nick Cave and Gillian Welch but the end product is defiantly original and different.
Tom Robinson loves them and they creep onto the menu of the more esoteric Radio 3 presenters while building an audience via the festival circuit and intimate venues like The Top Bar. If you're looking for something new and challenging ,they are definitely for you. As of course are the support act of Tony Stark and Nicolette Shae who broke the mould and a few rules when they last played here so a classic double bill for a Top Bar audience.
As always tickets are available at the venue or contact mjones572@hotmail.co.uk.

SEAN TAYLOR at THE QUEENS HEAD,BELPER.DECEMBER 15th. £8. 8.00pm.

5/12/2018

 
Picture
Some people call him the new John Martyn; others find echoes of Tom Waits and J.J.Cale in his work. However Sean Taylor is simply the new Sean Taylor and an artist on an amazing trajectory.
Sean arrives in Belper fresh from an outstandingly successful UK and European tour with his latest album,the majestic 'Flood and Burn' still attracting plaudits. The Guardian describes him as 'the man to watch' and it's hard to argue with that. Sean regularly records in Austin Texas where they just might know a thing or two about blues rooted songwriters but on this occasion he will be accompanied by double bass player Mike Seal,one of many fine musicians with Belper connections.
No better way to enter the festive season than with a truly memorable gig.
Tickets are available at the venue or for more info/reservations contact mjones572@hotmail.co.uk.
