The Brew

Earning a reputation as one of Europe's most exciting rock acts, from Grimsby, The Brew has appeared three times on Germany’s Prestigious Rockpalast show and has toured with ZZ Top and Lynyrd Skynyrd, and played alongside legends like Jeff Beck, Joe Bonamassa, Chickenfoot and Joe Satriani!

They have seen their albums chart across Europe in Germany, Poland, Spain and in 2014 they were the only UK band to play at the Woodstock festival in Poland to 250,000 people. After six fine and varied studio albums and zero line-up changes Tim Smith - bass, Kurtis Smith - drums & Jason Barwick guitar/vocals, their seventh masterpiece Art Of Persuasion was released in October 2018. While proudly displaying the band’s influences - from Led Zeppelin to Wolfmother, the record easily avoids schlocky retro clichés and is exactly in line with their critically acclaimed live shows.

Since forming in 2009, Crow Black Chicken have built up a strong underground following throughout Ireland, the US, and Europe with multiple well received tours and one off gigs. They have supported ZZ Top at The Marquee in Cork, played Glastonbury twice and when released, “Deep South” was ranked in the top 5 blues albums by Classic Rock Blues Magazine...

The affable trio of Christy O Hanlon (Vocals, Guitar), Stephen McGrath (Bass) and Gev Barrett (Drums, Backing vocals) combine elements of folk, hard rock and blues of bands like Gov't Mule, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Led Zeppelin to create their own distinct, infectious sound

On Saturday 25th January they were voted the “best act” by the audience of the Introducing Stage at Giants Of Rock in Minehead and as a result of this, they will be returning in 2021 for an appearance on a main stage.....a key fixture in next year's line-up, that's for sure!
