SEVEN MILES OUT

THE great thing about having a long month is that we have an extra weekend for even more events.

This Friday evening we are delighted to be hosting the album launch for Dead Sea Apes who will be playing with Jesus Knievel as support. Dead Sea Apes are a mesmerisin­g band to see live and this trio have become masterful at creating huge vistas of sounds. Described as ‘a perfect concoction of sun-scorched psychedeli­a and raga-infused improvisat­ion, stunning, visceral and downright thrilling…’ Dead Sea Apes are really something very, very special indeed. Come and enjoy an existentia­l sonic experience all for free. Doors open 7.30pm.

This Saturday night we welcome back the brilliant Dr Shadrack’s Surgery to Seven Miles Out which is guaranteed to cure all ills and cleanse your soul. Joining Dr Shadrack are Mike and Adam from fishon-a-stick playing an acoustic set of alternativ­e folk and the mighty Golden Daggers led by the tour de force that is Matt Wolff treating us to an original set of amazing songs.

This is an exceptiona­l night of live music that will blow you away so make sure you keep this appointmen­t with the Drs! It’s free entry and doors open at 7.30pm.
