Wednesday 8th Jan
Martyn Wyndham Read
Martyn has been one of our favourite guests ever since the club began. He's intending to retire from touring this year and so this will be the last chance to see him in Spalding. Note the date! AND it's not at South Holland Centre because it wasn't available on the day. Instead it's at Cowbit Village Hall (click for directions). There's no bar there so bring whatever refreshments you want with you. But don't miss this very special evening!

John Conolly
John had to pull out of a gig here last year due to an injury so we're very pleased to have been able to organise a re-booking. You probably don't need to be told that John is a Lincolnshire legend with some very contrasting and brilliant songs to his credit. Another of our favourites.

Hunter Muskett

Terry Hiscock played a superb solo evening for us a while back and now he's here again with the whole band. First formed in 1968, the Musketts have been enjoying a late flowering after reforming in 2013. Expect some mellow vocals and tasty guitar
