Bush Hall

A worthy cause and the band have it there usual all. Highly entertaining. The master level on the PA needed to come up a bit: it wasn’t until 2/3 the way through that individual voices and instruments started to come through clearly. Really missed the female trumpeter - the replacements were under rehearsed and hit more than a few bum notes… I remain a loyal fan though and look forward to the next outing.

Unbelievable evening of music from a true legend . Beautiful venue which was perfect for Perry Blake and an added bonus of Tom J Johnson the special guest for the concert …

Amazing! Best concert I've ever been to. I'm glad I got to see Dean live, it was worth it. New memories that'll stick forever <3

What an incredible artist. And such a unique and suitable venue. Thank You for bringing your talent to this world You are truly gifted Hugo

Incredible! I’ve been to many concerts and this one was definitely in top 3! Eric seems so down to earth, so happy to be performing and he seemed so happy to have us sing along. His interactions with the audience were pure class, such an incredible artist. And he even took time to chat with everyone one by one, shake everyone’s hand and take photos with the fans. Wonderful experience, and the venue was brilliant as well - incredibly good sound and lightning! The support band, Remember Monday was so wonderful too!

2nd time we’ve seen them this year and they still smashed it! The roar of the crowd on the final song was so full of energy and would not think twice about seeing them again.

Wonderful concert, great balance of acoustic and electric, a treat to see a legend in such an intimate venue with the Undertakers, a fine band. Duet for Two Guitars was one of many highlights. Glad the mixing desk nailed the bass reverberation quickly! Come back soon. T

Striking Matches were outstanding! First time seeing them. Bush Hall is a great venue, the acoustics of the room are decent with the setup they had but Sarah and Justin’s voices are amazing, mind blowing with their unbelievable guitar skills.

I loved the small intimate nature of the venue. I had a seat in the front row so had a great view. Striking Matches were great playing a mixture of old songs and new ones they’re working on. They had one or two technical issues but overcame them. All in all it was a great experience.

Great venue and great show. It was an amazing atmosphere, and welcoming environment. Caleb was very interactive with the audience, which made it an even more special experience. I’ve been wanting to see them live for a few years now and it was nothing less than incredible!

Shocking that Matt and the band have not played a uk gig in 14 years. Everything worked so well. Classic songs mixed with subtle new music. The band's musicianship was excellent and really tight considering that they have played together live so infrequently. All this mixed with Matt's humour and easy rapport with the audience. The set even included a perfect vendition of ELO's Mr Blue Sky! The opening set with Olivia Dean was also a revelation. She has a smoky jazz voice and amazing, instantly memorable songs. She will be huge soon.

I came to hear Ben Earle - but Catherine McGrath was an added bonus as she is always pleasant to listen too - so both my friend and I had a really nice evening.

What a show, travelled down from Newcastle for the show and it was great and got to meet Steve after the gig to boot, superb!

Absolutely splendid as ever, favourite It Bites songs by a brilliant band line up and lots of light hearted humour in the midst. This is one concert never to be missed.

Great gig shame the venues toilets were flooding as we went in! Francis and the band on great form with the addition of Peter Jones on keys. All the It Bites hits what more could you want?

Great intimate venue and perfect for the soulful music of Mark with his amazing voice and guitar playing. Wish it could have lasted longer as I have too many favourite songs!

New music, and new-new music, loved every second of it. Chasing Deer prepared so well for this debut album launch concert - from outfit changes to movement on and off stage, live sign language interpretation, interaction with the audience, everything right down to the “parting gift” at the door was clearly well thought out, practised and fine-tuned. What a great band to see perform on stage!

An amazing show! They played mostly new songs and then two encores playing older material. Nic and Meah jumped around (and in Nic’s case) off the stage and the place was bouncing.

I have listened to Erland Øyes voice more or less every day for half of my life. He has been my one fan girl obsession from the tender age of 15 and the only other time I have seen him live was in Denmark nearly 10 years ago. Seeing him was a real treat. His repertoire was so varied, kept us all on our toes, the sound so crisp and the atmosphere amazing. Truly a magical night!!

Excellent night although the venue is a bit of a trial. It was hot and we had a poor view but the band were superb and the sound perfect. 😉
