Our
Gig List for the coming days/weeks/months is shown below. All the dates
are subject to change, and if you are traveling a long way we advise
you to phone and confirm. If you want to book tickets please phone us
on 01792 473276 (rather than sending me an email). Please don't phone
between 12 and 2pm as it's lunchtime and we're likely to be too busy
cooking to staff the Box Office as well! We aren't open in the evenings
unless we've got music on (or lasagne to make) so ring in the daytime
(there's someone there from 8:30am-6pm, usually).
Doors
usually open at 7:30pm, with support acts starting at 8:30pm. We don't
reserve tables so if you intend sitting down to eat, be early. The
kitchen stays open until about 9 or when the main act starts. We try
and stick to what's advertised but musicians will be musicians!

Ezio and Booga
An upbeat night
of acoustic origingals from this driving duo. I recommend this to
everyone!! But be quick - it's already on the Ezio website and tickets
are selling well.
If
you're a band/artist or promoter email me at thechattery@hotmail.com.
Please bear in mind that we have a LOT of demos, albums and emails sent
to us and it takes us a while to get through them. Please also note
that we are a small restaurant with a musical interest in the singer-songwriter/americana/alt.country/etc.
If you play punk, nu-punk, post punk, hardcore, emo, screamo, grindcore,
hip hop, breakbeat, drum'n'bass etc. your email will most likely be
ignored and demo binned. We also have no interest in acts who list dancing
above singing in their biographies and rely on backing tracks. Not sure
whether to email me? Count the number of Dylan albums you can name,
if it's less than 10 don't bother :-) .
Not
sure whether to come and see a show in The Chattery? You can read a
selection of nice things people have said about us here.
The
Monkey Cafe are setting up an americana night called Made
in Americana - looks like they'll have some good stuff coming up,
have a read...
Also worth checking out is MilkwoodJam.
A
brief history of live music at The Chattery can be found here. Including
some of the gigs you might've missed!
