Live Lounge @ Baby Blue, down at the Albert Dock, kicks off its new season next month, and there’s plenty for acoustic lovers to (metaphorically, please) wet themselves with excitement over.
It all starts on 6th September with a visit from the Acoustic Strawbs. Not only have they had chart success themselves, they’ve also toured with the likes of Frank Zappa, King Crimson, The Eagles, and Santana. Support comes from local artist Rachael Dunn.
Some of the acoustic (and semi-acoustic) highlights of the coming season are
6th September – Acoustic Strawbs, with support from Rachael Dunn (Liverpool)
9th September – Ezio, with support from Roxanne de Bastion (Germany)
13th September – The Blow Monkeys, with support from Kate Rogers (Canada)
11th October – John Otway & Wild Willy Barrett
18th October – Three BONZOS and a piano, with support from Andy Roberts
28th October – Adrian Edmondson & The Bad Shepherds, with support from Ella Edmondson
8th November – Richard Digance
15th November – Erick Mongrain
16th November – Mark Butcher Band, with support from Rachael Dunn
Not bad! Not bad at all!
