Lee Newsome has been performing his tribute to the King for 4 years and he currently tours the UK in various theatres & clubs. Lee’s stunning, powerhouse vocals set him apart from every other Elvis tribute act out there – a one man Elvis experience!

The Up Close & Personal show is a show that is not being currently performed anywhere. A show which concentrates solely on the love songs & power ballads of the King. Lee says of his show “it’s truly amazing what Elvis still means to people so many years after his passing. The tears that I see when I perform my show is something magical to behold, to see what this man meant to so many people continues show after show, I just hope I do Elvis’s memory justice in my performance.”

With authentic suits made by the actual man that made suits for the King, Lee’s attention to detail is simply second to none. Don’t miss this unique experience!

A seasonal treat to hear two renowned Jazz Suites composed by Stan Tracey, inspired by the poetic imagery of Dylan Thomas’ works: A Child’s Christmas in Wales and Under Milk Wood.

Next year marks the 60th anniversary of Stan’s composition Under Milk Wood . Originally released as a mono LP in 1965 (and re-released several times since), it is rated a ’canonical classic of British jazz’. His grandson Ben Tracey recollects that Stan “began writing the music for his masterpiece on the night bus home to Streatham from his job as the house pianist at Ronnie Scott’s”.

The peerless ballad Starless and Bible Black and other evocative tunes well-integrated with lyrical passages from Dylan’s work, transport the listener to the fictional small Welsh fishing town of Llareggub – spell that backwards! Written for radio, Under Milk Wood has a host of eccentric characters and follows their daily activities, loving them, despite their flaws.

Line-up: Clark Tracey drums, TBA piano, Simon Allen saxes, Andrew Cleyndert bass and narration from both Ben Tracey and Sharon White.

Claire was born and raised in Derby where I still live today. I didn’t show any interest in music until at the age the age of five, my parents took me to Pontins “Middleton Towers” on holiday. This coincided with the A.O.E National Organ Festival week. Most of my time is spent teaching music around Derbyshire, offering piano, keyboard, organ, flute and music theory lessons. Locally in Derby face to face, or online offered for those outside of Derbyshire. Learn for fun, or work towards exam grades, all levels catered for.
Concerts now being performed on the amazing Wersi OAX-1 duo.

Rowan Piggott & Joe Danks were introduced in 2021 and bonded over a shared passion for Old-Time Appalachian music. An initial campsite session turned into living room jams, sharing lifts to sessions and ultimately the creation of a new touring duo – Old Spot.

​Expect Old-Time Appalachian music made with modern audiences in mind – stomping fiddle tunes and lazy banjo backbeats giving way to close harmony singing. Old Spot sees two musicians from strong traditional backgrounds exploring a shared musical love, creating new music that is bursting with joy and imagination.
