Britain's What's On Event Guide
Live Music and Burger EveningL
Our live music and food evenings are back at the Heritage Centre! Join us for an entertaining evening of fantastic live music and food on the last Friday of every month.
This month’s local performers Bookends & Friends.
Bookends are made up of Brenda and Andy Kyle who have been writing and performing songs together for about 12 years. “It started as a bit of fun, but it’s got into the blood now! We would class our music as contemporary/indie folk with a twist.”
Many of Bookend’s songs have been inspired by family, friends, personal experience and the North East places that they love … and indeed reference to the beautiful Antrim coast where Andy was brought up.
“We enjoy creating sweet melodies and interesting harmonies, sometimes with a sprinkle of funny bones dust! We have had the pleasure of participating in workshops with Boo Hewerdine, Edwina Hayes, Karine Polwart and Stu Hannah (of Megson) and hope some of their influences have rubbed off on us!“
Brenda and Andy will be joined by musical friends Jim and Marilyn Gibson – a husband and wife duo who play acoustic guitar, electric bass and, more recently, Celtic harps. Also incorporating vocal harmonies they cover a wide variety of styles from standards to folk, contemporary acoustic songs with an emphasis on well written lyrics, classic pop, and a growing repertoire of their own original material including tunes written for two harps. Just for fun!
Café & Bar: Our Chef will be serving up some delicious food for the evening, including a range of burgers, chips, nachos & cheese and dirty fries, along with sweet treats. Our Café Bar will have alcoholic drinks (along with non alcoholic drinks) and sweet treats available to purchase and enjoy alongside the live music.
No need to book, just turn up for a great evening between 6pm – 9pm (last food order 8.30pm). Get here early to grab a seat, order your food and settle in for a great evening of live music.
