Wolverhampton Country Songwriters Night

06/11/2019

Four years ago, Jim Duncan and Emma Swindells sought to provide a platform for Country music in Wolverhampton and the monthly Country Night sessions were launched. What fun we’ve had since then!
Sadly, all good things must come to an end and the time has come to bring Wolverhampton Country Night in its’ present format to a close.
We have loved sharing the amazing talent that has graced our evenings and send a sincere thank you to all the artists who have performed for us. You’ve been amazing!
A sincere thank you is also extended to our loyal supporters, some of whom have attended our events from our very first session. Cheers to you all and thanks for the good times shared!
Best wishes from all the team 🤠 🍻

What a wonderful session we had at the last Country Night!! Sandy McLelland opened the night in style with great songs beautifully accompanied by Dee. His first performance in Wolverhampton but hopefully not his last. Rob McHale brought his American heritage to Bantock through a collection of beautifully crafted songs. A true master of story telling. Thank you Rob! The evening finished with the rich vocals of the very talented Simon Clewlow. Honest songwriting and the perfect finale 😁 A massive thumbs up and thank you to you all!

03/05/2019

Happy Friday 🤠

Last Saturday was the perfect way to finish the Country Night sessions for 2018 :)
Ash Cooper and the ACB rocked Bantock Park! The lovely Melanie Greggain entertained us with her beautiful voice and authentic lyrics and the night finished in rousing style with our home grown Emma Swindells Band complete with Rich on bass:)
Thank you all for a wonderful night.
Bring on 2019!

07/11/2018

So sad to hear that the performance by Ash and the boys at our Country Night on Saturday 24th November will be their last as the ACB.
Ash Cooper and the ACB played on our first ever Country Night back in 2015 and have entertained us with performances each year since then. Ash is bringing the full band and it would be wonderful to pack the house!
Find your marker pen and put a BIG exclamation mark in the diary for that night as a reminder to join Ash and the boys as they party (as only the ACB can party!) along with lovely Melanie Greggain and your hosts Emma Swindells Band :)

04/11/2018

So excited to announce that our last Country Night for 2018 will feature our good friends Ash Cooper and the ACB, Melanie Greggain and Emma Swindells.
Hope you are able to join us on Saturday 24th November for what promises to be an awesome celebration of Country Music.
Doors open at 7.00pm, music from 7.30pm and lights out at 10.30pm!
Bar on site and free parking.
