    Stacey McMullen gigs at The Geese and Fountain, Croxton Kerrial, on Sunday. Stacey is the antithesis of the modern day singer/song writer.

He avoids standard acoustic sound by inserting world styles such as flamenco, blues, middle eastern and folk elements into his original songs.

    The Crown welcome Beyond Mainstreet to town on Sunday, for the first time. They play a wide variety of cover songs taken from their favourite artists including the Stereophonics, Bruce Springsteen, Bryan Adams and 80s covers, often tweaking the songs to their own arrangements.
