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!
"He
has the rare ability to conjure entire vistas and characters in
no more than a couple of lines. His songs are music as landscape,
timeless tales that instantly take root in your mind as though they've
been there forever. In fact, if Annie Proulx wrote songs she would
sound like Nels Andrews."
Americana UK
Pili Pala is
a showcase of new, emerging and established Welsh music and literature.
Pili Pala is a charity festival in support of the West Glamorgan
Council on Alcohol and Drug Abuse Ltd (WGCADA)
2013 is the inaugural year for what will hopefully be an annual arts festival
in Swansea, bringing together musicians, writers and artists from
across Wales. The festival is presented by WGCADA, and all proceeds
raised will help support their wide range of programs and services
offered to anyone who is affected by any form of substance misuse.
Viper jazz, ragtime,
country blues. A new record of “Wickedly inventive musings
on American roots music.” is on the way. Understandably very
popular - book your tickets soon!!
The Coal Porters
are an exciting and dynamic bluegrass combo with a DYNAMITE LIVE
ACT featuring Carly Frey – fine fiddle and vocals; John Breese
- banjo and vocals; Sid Griffin - vocals, mandolin, harmonica and
autoharp; Tali Trow, bass; Neil Robert Herd guitar, sporran and
vocals.
It's been a while
since we saw Ezio and Booga so I'm really looking forward to their
lively show of original songs and banter!

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!
