New Monthly Concert Season At 28 York Place, Edinburgh EH1 3EP

28 York Place ticketing info: All tickets for all concerts only £10. Contact Jim Welsh by text messsage on 07717-88 58 55 or email Jim on either jim@stoneyport.com or jwwelsh@btinternet.com to buy tickets.

For all concerts - doors (and bar) from 7:30pm; show-time 8:00pm.


ON SUNDAY 17 OCTOBER 2010 we restart monthly concerts in 28 York Place, Edinburgh EH1 3EP.

This first concert is seriously top value for money (but of course they all are!!) with that remarkable one-man blues band MIKE WHELLANS (http://mikewhellans.com) heading up a three-hander show. Mike Whellans' music is straight down the line, good rockin' 12-bar blues played in his inimitable style on 6/12-string guitars (picked with great precision and at eye-watering speed), mouth-harp (packed with music - it's as if he's filled them up with great music and then he just blows it all out towards you), and a wee tottie drum-kit. And the other things he can do with his mouth? Well, you've just got to see and hear his show-stopping vocal percussion - a real tour de force - just got to be witnessed to be believed (catch his self-penned "Smile on Your Face" and his take on Jack Bruce's & Ginger Baker's "Train Time" - mighty!). Added to this he sings, is a drummer of no slight talent, writes songs, and seems to have boundless energy.

The other acts this first night are David Vernon (accordion) & Dick Lee (reeds). Dave and Dick are virtuosi from quite different musical backgrounds who share an infectious enjoyment of performing great music drawn from a wide range of genres expertly played. Expect to hear a mixture of Jewish wedding dances, South American Tango, folk tunes from the Balkans, French Musette and a whole variety of other surprises. A world-wide musical tour. (see http://www.davidvernonanddicklee.com)

Plus, not only that, but also Paul Johnston, the dynamic front man from Shetland's 'Rock Salt & Nails'. Paul's blurb in the recent AMC @ St Bride's programme said: " ... guaranteed to be Entertaining, Exciting & Enchanting. This night of self-penned songs will have you clapping, crying, and shouting for more. 'A manic mix of contemporary observational song.' (The Mid Yell Daily News) 'Miss this show at your peril, Paul will have you screaming for more, dancing on the tables & having the time of you life.' (The Baltasound Bugle)". Paul's AMC show more or less sold out by the way.

The second concert (more details later) in this autumn series will be on SUNDAY 14 NOVEMBER with SALLY BARKER'S great tribute show, "The Joni Mitchell Project" (see http://web.me.com/sallybarker/Joni_Mitchell_Project/Home.html) which wowed a very busy house in the 250-seat Big Room at AMC @ St Bride's in August.

Finally, just before Christmas - party night! SUNDAY 12 DECEMBER sees those excellent and irrepressible songstresses in harmony, The BEVVY SISTERS (www.myspace.com/thebevvysisters), headline with special guest Sharon King (www.myspace.com/sharonkingandthenevernevercowboys) opening the show.
