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).

DO NOT COME UP TO US IN THE PUB AND TRY TO BOOK TICKETS. YOU HAVE TO CALL IN OR RING US UP. SORRY.

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!

Fri 26.06 Alana Levandoski Continuing this years theme of "americana" from Canada (Canadiana?) is this highly regarded singer-songwriter from Kelwood, Manitoba. Reminiscent of a young Nanci Griffith, Bob Harris says "her music [is] touchingly beautiful" and included her on one of his excellent samplers. Have a listen here. £8
Sat 11.07 Boatbar to Hamburg plus The Caves Charity bash featuring some of Swansea's finest songwriting talent. Will the CD be ready?? £5
Sat 18.07 THE SQUIRTS The Mighty Squirts reform. Again. We can't get enough, and you can't either. Guaranteed to sell out so ring us NOW. £10
Thu 30.07 Mary Gauthier SOLD OUT £15

 

Alt.country:- teenage angst for middle aged people

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.

A brief history of live music at The Chattery can be found here. Including
some of the gigs you might've missed!
