Nikki Mascall and Griff Daniels, with special guest saxophonist Vicki Burke, will be making a welcome return to Devizes on Friday (april 24) at The Bear Hotel's Cellar Bar.
Nikki and Griff are well known to the Bear Hotel audience with many appearances in bands such as The Dempseys, The Critters. Performing a great collection of songs that touch all the bases, from jazz to blues and country and some original material, they will also be joined by the wonderful tenor and soprano sax of Vicki Burke. Vicki is well established on the West Country music scene and plays with likes of Flash Harry and Doreen Doreen.
With a packed schedule of spring and summer concerts all three performers are heading for the busiest time of the year now. Vicki Burke’s band Flash Harry packed in a great audience a few weeks ago at the Southgate Inn and Griff & Nikki’s other bands which include The Valley and The Dempseys are on a busy run of concerts. Vicki Burke’s Bristol based 11-piece band Doreen Doreen will be playing Glastonbury Festival in June and Flash Harry will be playing Dartmouth Folk Festival in May. Catching these three brilliant musicians in a smaller intimate venue is well worth the effort and The Bear Hotel is the perfect venue.
The trio’s last gig at The Bear was a very special night with hardly a seat in the house.... so get down early on Friday, entry is £5 on the door and the music starts at 9pm.
