Clubhouse Newsletter #34

Good evening,

We’re not going to mention Autumn, Halloween or Christmas, so let’s just get straight in to it….

The boys from The Dreaming Spires are finishing up a series of extremely successful live dates and you can still catch them at the following venues:

Thursday 12th November 2015: BRIXTON - The Windmill. 8pm.  Tickets

Friday 13th November 2015: BRIGHTON - Brighthelmstone Promotions @ The Prince Albert (01273 730499 / http://www.brighthelmstonepromotions.co.uk/

Tickets - 8.00pm doors £9 advance

Not only are they causing a storm in the UK but they continue to make waves in the USA, here are a couple of the latest pieces:

No Depression, USA

"The Byrds, the Burrito Brothers, and other purveyors of Southern California’s sun-dappled 1960s-'70s sound radiate from this band’s two releases – 2012's Brothers in Brooklyn and their latest, this year's Searching for the Supertruth. "

Twangville, USA

“Brothers Robin and Joe Bennett, the band’s primary members, are UK born and bred but have clearly studied US power pop and Memphis soul circa the 1970’s. They channel those influences into an album of songs that are truly exquisite.”

Meanwhile The Rosellys are still in the US touring and spreading the good word about “The Granary Sessions”, the band even managed a couple of shows with Don Gallardo (who we are happy to able to tell you will be back in the UK in April/May 2016) and they’ve made a series of entertaining videos documenting their travels which you can see over on their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/BritishAmericana/?fref=ts

We’ve also made this short film about the new record that we would love for you to watch and share far and wide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_bwkNkx_3f8

Case Hardin have also been out on tour promoting “Colours Simple”, reports from the road are of a band who are really doing a great record justice with their new 4-piece rockier approach, I urge you to catch their last date at The Donkey on Sunday 1^st November if you are anywhere near the Leicester area.

You may have also noticed that we are heading towards awards season here in the UK – The Americana Music Association UK are holding their inaugural ceremony on 3^rd February and we expect a host of Clubhouse acts to be nominated! If you are a member of The AMAUK then you only have a couple of days left to nominate your favourite bands and artistes and you can do so right here!

Your support, as ever, is greatly appreciated!

It’s busy isn’t it? But there’s more… Paul McClure’s new record, due out in Feb ‘16, is already finding its way into the hands of DJ’s and reviewers as we gear up for the big release but we want to hear from you. If you like Paul’s music and think others will too then let us know.  Which blogs, magazines, radio shows should he be hounding? If you are in a position to shine a light on the Rutland Troubadour’s music then he’s waiting for you to drop him a line, get in touch now, he’s much nicer before dark.  http://www.paulmccluremusic.com

And finally, some great news for all in the Clubhouse…. We have joined forces with Continental Record Services, based in Holland, to distribute selected titles from our catalogue throughout Europe. The good people at CRS are currently working on the latest records by Case Hardin, The Dreaming Spires,  Don Gallardo and The Rosellys and plans are being made for mainland tours in the new year, watch this space!

If we don’t see you before maybe we’ll catch you atCome Down and Meet the Folks where The Cedars will make an all too rare live outing on 8^th November:

See you soon,
