Liverpool Acoustic Live 9th Birthday featuring Lee Southall (The Coral) 02/02/18
2018-02-02 20:00 - 23:00 | 81 Renshaw, 81 Renshaw Street, Liverpool, L1 2SJ, United Kingdom
Liverpool Acoustic Live celebrates its 9th birthday (and its first in new venue 81 Renshaw) by welcoming former member of The Coral Lee Southall for a very special, intimate concert.
Lee Southall brings a wealth of experience to his solo performances. As a founder member of The Coral, he’s already enjoyed a career that spans seven albums. His solo work hinges on finely crafted songwriting and virtuoso acoustic guitar. Folk, pop, blues and country thread their way through songs that take inspiration from the melodic intricacy of Bert Jansch and Davey Graham, through to the raw sparseness of Karen Dalton and Townes Van Zandt.
His debut solo album ‘Iron in the Fire’ was released April 2017 on Wonderfulsound.
Also on the bill will be the winner of the Liverpool Acoustic Songwriting Challenge 2017 (announced on 13th January).
Tickets are £8 in advance (and on the door if any remain).

Doors open at 7.30pm and the music starts at 8.00pm.

Finalists and new venue announced for Liverpool Acoustic Songwriting Challenge 2017 Showcase Final

Ten talented local songwriters have won a place at the Liverpool Acoustic Songwriting Challenge 2017 Showcase Final taking place on Saturday 13th January 2018 at the new venue, LEAF on Bold St.
Songwriters submitted brand new songs inspired by works of art on display across the Liverpool City Region during the October entry period. Judges Stephen Langstaff, Kaya Herstad Carney, Robert Vincent and Jon Lawton listened to all of the entries and gave each one a score based on lyrics, melody, composition and originality. The points from the judges were added together and the songwriters with the ten highest scores were awarded a place at the Showcase Final.
Each of the ten finalists will perform their song at the Showcase Final with an image of the work of art that inspired it projected onto the big screen for everyone to see. At the end of the night the winner of the Judges’ Award will be announced and a vote will be taken to find the Audience Favourite winner. The winning songwriters in each category will have their songs professionally recorded at Crosstown Studios.
In addition, there will be a special performance on the night from Operation Lightfoot, who were such a big hit at previous Showcase Finals.
The finalists are (in alphabetical order):-

Emma Thuy Linney – Disappearing
Freya Halvorsen – Devine Sarah
Hilde Gundersen – Listen
Iain Paterson – Long Dark Road
Junior Dayvis – Passage Of The African
Keir Howard – Speaking
Lydiah – Narcissus
Michael Aldag – Wings
Sarah Jones – Only You Who Knows
Tom Stichbury – Forlorn and Raised

Each of the ten songs is available to listen to on the Songwriting Challenge SoundCloud page where you can also see the work of art that inspired it and read the lyrics.
soundcloud.com/songwritingchallenge/sets/showcase-final-2017
Entry to the Showcase Final is £6 in advance and on the door. All profits will be divided between Marie Curie Cancer Care’s Woolton Centre and Garston Animal Rescue in memory of Liverpool Acoustic team member Sharon Jones.

Beat the January Blues, with Raphael Callaghan and friends 05/01/18
2018-01-05 20:00 - 23:00 | 81 Renshaw, 81 Renshaw Street, Liverpool, L1 2SJ, United Kingdom
Who doesn’t get the blues at the start of January? Christmas and New Year are over for another year. Our waists are wider, wallets and purses lighter, and we’re faced with the twin chores of taking down the decorations and dragging ourselves back into work…!
If that’s not enough to give you the January Blues then we don’t know what is.
But fear not, Liverpool Acoustic are here to help you Beat the January Blues with a FREE blues night at 81 Renshaw on Friday 5th January.
To make the night a little easier on the pocket all we’re asking for the poor blues men and woman performing on the night is that you make a donation into the PAY WHAT YOU FEEL bucket on the door.
RAPHAEL CALLAGHAN
Headlining is former Liverpool resident and respected bluesman Raphael Callaghan. As ‘Blue C’ along with Christine Purnell, Raphael organised regular blues events at Fort Perch Rock before moving to North Wales. Now a solo artist, Callaghan has recently launched a new album called Said And Done, and is playing his first gig back in Liverpool for a fair few years.
AL ‘BLUESMAN’ PETERS
AL is a legend on the local music scene and one of the best blues musicians around. AL plays songs about love, loss, war, politics, and youthful exuberance.
JO BYWATER
A professional guitar teacher by day, by night Jo is equally at home on a stage performing her distinctive style of blues inspired by her resonator guitar and the ups and downs of life. Jo is a previous winner of the Liverpool Acoustic Songwriting Challenge.
Doors open at 7.30pm and the music kicks off at 8.00pm with a short set from Liverpool Acoustic head honcho Graham ‘The Greens’ Holland.
Remember, this is a FREE gig with a PAY WHAT YOU FEEL donation bucket – even blues performers have to eat!

Liverpool Acoustic Live - Tom George album launch 01/09/17
2017-09-01 20:00 - 23:00 | 81 Renshaw, 81 Renshaw Street, Liverpool, L1 2SJ, United Kingdom
Liverpool Acoustic are proud to welcome Tom George as he launches his brand new album Gravity at 81 Renshaw on Friday 1st September.
Tom George is a Liverpool creative who is impossible to pigeonhole. In twenty years in his adopted city he has embarked on countless projects across many art forms but always returns to his primary passion, music-making. As a guitarist and singer, Tom usually performs solo or with sparse backing, but the recordings he creates are richly layered and melodic. Tom’s previous album Postcards was praised by Liverpool Acoustic as “both eclectic and cohesive” and he has taken his time creating a worthy follow-up album, Gravity. At the launch Tom will be debuting songs from the album alongside his more familiar tunes such as Drifter and Womankind.
Supporting Tom on the night will be Evie Moran, a 15 year old singer songwriter from Liverpool UK who has already impressed some significant music industry figures in a small space of time. She has performed at The Adlib Industry Showcase at the Arts Centre in April 2017, Merseyrail Sound Station, Rocking on the River sessions at the Pier Head and is due to appear at Eppiefest at the former home of Brian Epstein on 27th August.
Completing the lineup is Liverpool Acoustic’s Tuesday Tunes co-host Pete King who is celebrating his performance at Tom’s Gravity album launch with the release of a brand new song coincidentally called Weightless.
So why not kick off a brand new month with exciting new music and an exiting young performer in Liverpool Acoustic’s lovely new venue?

Our featured guests this week: a regular performer at the Liverpool Bierkeller, we welcome Lisa Mansfield for her first visit to 81 Renshaw, plus a lady who regularly wows crowds down at Lennon’s Bar, Chloe Collins
As always we encourage performers to arrive early and stay after they’ve played to support other performers. We have a decent enough PA at the venue, a mic and stand, and some cables as well – if you need extra mics and things please bring your own along. Oh, and please bring your instrument too (i.e. snap your own strings!)

Jaywalkers
Since reaching the finals of the BBC Young Folk Awards in 2008, Jaywalkers have cemented their place as one of the most exciting, virtuosic and entertaining young bands working on the British Folk scene. Effortlessly creating a unique sound based on their collective and individual musical backgrounds, the band takes influence from Folk, Bluegrass, Country and Western Swing music in the form of exciting instrumentals, three part harmony and impressive slap bass. Add good humour, tasteful arrangements and exceptional musicianship to the mix and they are guaranteed to put a smile on your face…. The music Jaywalkers create is innovative, rooted deeply in tradition, and exhilarating.
