Cloudy Apple
Mangotsfield based rock n’ rollers fed up with the manufactured nonsense on reality shows who got together in the cold of a freezing warehouse to have a bash at coming up with their own tunes.
Inspired by their heroes….and hailing from the West Country, Cloudy Apple was born to provide you with anthem-like tunes and smoking riffs that you won’t be able to get out of your head!
They are firmly established as regulars at top music venues across Bristol having played The Fleece, The Louisiana and the Stag & Hounds this year!
Resplendence
Kick the cat
Kick The Cat are an eight-piece rhythm & blues and soul showband and are widely known for their tribute to the Blues Brothers. The band was established in January 1996 and gigs regularly around the south-west region, reaching the area finals of the ‘Battle of the Bands’ competition in 1998 as well as performing on TV for the Children In Need charity in 1999. Since then they have built up a following from their many public and private performances.
Other styles included in their set are Motown, funk and even disco, putting on an energetic show that’s guaranteed to make you want to get up and dance.
