Last night the RGR Bros were getting down at The Cluny to the groove-laden sounds of the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio. It was a treat to hear their spirited take on Curtis Mayfield's Move On Up, dedicated on this occasion to a fan who sadly passed away.

If you like Hammond grooves and are in the area, make sure you get down to our next Eclectic Soul night at the Brinkburn Street Brewery, Bar & Kitchen next Friday 26th. We'll be spinning plenty of soul jazz, funk and underground disco. The food's great, the beer's great, the music's legendary, and it's FREE!
