Big thanks to everyone that came along and supported our s*ld o*t Jenny Don't And The Spurs show tonight at The Wedgewood Rooms. A bigger than usual thanks to Geoff, Ben and the Wedge team in my absence due to the continuing saga of sciatica (the delights of ageing!). I missed a great show according to the messages I have received, so a big thanks also to the Jenny Don’t gang and Savannah Gardner…Kx

Next Saturday! In Harbour Records Emsworth! Free Entry! The return of the Colvinator, Gerry Colvin, playing songs from his brand new album "Past, Present & Crescent", and no doubt having everyone in stitches in between tunes! His reputation as one of the finest wordsmiths on the folk scene is well deserved. Music starts at 1.30pm, but we'd recommend getting into the shop a bit before that. There is a car park opposite the shop too and plenty in the village or behind the Tesco Express on the Emsworth roundabout.
Who's coming? :)

Hey Everyone - Just wanted to say a big thanks to all that came along and supported our Bluegrass Blitz series of shows in the The Wedgewood Rooms over the last three weeks. The fact that each night was s*ld o*t was heartening in the face of live music ticket sales declining, and it means a lot to me, the venue and of course the artists.
Our next show that isn't s*ld o*t yet, is with the brilliant Carter Sampson, and she'll have her ace band with her as well. She's an incredible songwriter from Oklahoma, and we'd love to make her Square Tower debut another s*ll o*t :)
Check out the poster below - the tix links are on there.
Thanks again all,

We're thrilled to add one of our special, intimate, seated shows at The Wedgewood Rooms (The Edge) with San Diego's badass outlaw country firecracker Sara Petite on 2nd July! And she'll be bringing her ace band with her too!

Wow, what an epic ending to the third (and also s*ld o*t) Bluegrass Blitz series of shows at The Wedgewood Rooms, this time with A.D. Scruffs and here joined on stage by Jonas and Jane….
A big thanks to everyone that bought tickets for all three shows - the support and love shown to the artists has been second to none, and for those asking, yes we intend to do it all again next Jan / Feb, so if there are any bands / artists that you’d like to see (should fall within the Americana genre), then tag them here!
And of course we couldn’t do this without the tireless efforts of Team Wedge and the maestro on sound Ben 😀
