SUMMARY:When Rivers Meet
DESCRIPTION:When Rivers Meet are gearing up for a massive 2025 with the release of their brand-new album Addicted To You—and they’re hitting the road to celebrate! \nWhen British husband and wife artists Grace & Aaron Bond released their latest album ‘Aces Are High’ in 2023 recorded by a river in the depths of Suffolk\, little did they know about the hurricane-strength surge of support that would carry them to become the first fully Independent Rock/Blues Band to have a Top 10 in the UK Official Album Charts. \nThe last five years have brought both public and critical acclaim. They were named ‘Band Of The Year’ for three consecutive years\, earning them a spot in the UK Blues Hall of Fame\, and the title of ‘Best New Band’ from the UK’s largest rock radio station. \nThey have developed a powerful live reputation performing sell-out live shows across two continents\, with their last live album entering the UK Official Jazz & Blues Album Chart at #1. \nWhen Rivers Meet have remained proudly Independent\, attending the 2024 BRIT Awards leading the new wave of artists to keep control over creative direction\, championing a focus on authenticity in the music industry. \nThis is more than a tour—it’s the next chapter in the WRM story. Don’t miss it.

SUMMARY:Honestly
DESCRIPTION:Honestly\, a new play about a compulsive liar\, is coming to the Village Hall in Whissendine on Tuesday 30th September. \nHonestly covers a tricky time in Chloe’s life when she has been caught and found guilty of a serious crime. She faces either prison or a treatment for a mental illness. Is she a villain or a victim? \nMeanwhile Emma has the job of determining just who and what Chloe is and she is in danger of buckling under Chloe’s endless twists and turns. Ask a compulsive liar if they are telling the truth. \nHonestly is both dark and humorous and based on a true story\, ironically. The play takes a sideways look at what value we place on honesty in the 21st century. Isn’t it much easier to live inside a version of the truth that is comfortable and\, if you don’t like it\, simply move on? \nHonestly\, from Dogwood Productions CIC.

SUMMARY:The Amber Squad Live at The Victoria Hall\, Oakham
DESCRIPTION:10 years since they reformed in 2015\, The Amber Squad will once again return to play at the famous old Victoria Hall in Oakham\, Rutland on Saturday\, September 27th\, 2025. \nThe band enjoyed a spell of success in the early ‘80’s with their first single “(I Can’t) Put My Finger On You” receiving national airplay on Radio 1 (including John Peel’s famous nighttime show)\, and they also toured widely up and down the country\, including supporting Geno Washington when he came over to the UK. \nAfter a 30 year hiatus\, they reformed for a charity appearance at the Victoria Hall in December 2015\, and since then have played regularly at many famous music clubs and venues\, including the Hope & Anchor in Islington\, and Wild At Heart Club in Berlin. They also have attracted a substantial and loyal following from the “Mod Revival” community\, who appreciate their brand of original energetic power pop. \nThe event on September 27th has been organised to benefit the Victoria Hall\, which\, like many independent venues\, has been experiencing a tough few years in recent times\, and which is a much loved and valuable community resource for the people of Oakham and Rutland. \nThe concert will focus on ‘70s and ‘80s music and also features East Midlands Classic Rockers “Dark Sky Refugee”\, as well as much loved local DJ Vernon Stokes who will be dusting off his decks as “Road Hog Disco”. Additional surprises are planned for the night\, along with a full bar operated by The Grainstore local brewery.
