Traditional blues and country from these esteemed folksters.
Sunday 18th: Little Victor feat. Little George Sueref
This was chaos last time - in a good way, we think. This time the spooky, special talent Victor is backed by Little George on upright bass (shurely shome mishtake - he's a harp player. Ed) and a.n.other on skins. Swampy juke joint beckons.
