Never The Bride – Worth it Work it
The first band to ever play at Wokingham Music Club (WMC) was Never The Bride so it’s very fitting that they will be playing the first WMC gig after lockdown.
Here’s their latest single and anyone that has seen the band before will know what an exciting live band they are.
Based around the dynamic duo of Nikki Lamborn and Catherine Feeney, the band never disappoint so it’s well worth getting along to the show on Friday, July 23 to celebrate the return of live music – www.neverthebride.com
One Eyed Man – Cornish Shores
As well as putting on individual live shows, Wokingham Music Club has a stage at the Wokingham Festival on August Bank Holiday Weekend (Saturday to Monday).
Here’s an artist that will be appearing on that stage. Stuart Hutton aka One Eyed Man is clearly a talented artist as he writes, records, and produces his music himself and also created the video for this new single. We’re looking forward to seeing him at the festival – www.facebook.com/OneEyedManOfficial
