Musical Chairs

The Canalhouse · Nottingham

In the beginning, there were dinosaurs. They didn’t write songs or tell jokes, but if they had, only one of them would be allowed to use an instrument at once on any given comedy bill. Musical Chairs boldly breaks the ultimate taboo and brings you three melodic comedic powerhouses. Ashley Frieze is a comedy club regular, with a guitar bag full of daft and witty songs and a joyous energy to warm up even the coldest of crowds. Kitty Messalina is a comedic triple threat: a queer woman of colour: lewd lyrics and raunchy rhymes from this salaciously smutty songstress. Friz Frizzle is the ultimate song ruiner. They take you to another plane with logical lyrical leaps that will surprise and delight you. It’s simply an hour of wonderful musical stand-up comedy, proving you can have multiple musical comedians on the bill… and nobody gets hurt.

ROB HERON & CONRAD BIRD

Caryford Community Hall · Castle Cary

Rob Heron has been touring the world with his band, The Tea Pad Orchestra, for the past 15 years, throwing flavours of classic country, gypsy-swing, rhythm & blues, and rockabilly into his original songs. Originally from the Lake District, but based in Newcastle Upon Tyne, he is well-known for his live performances, and dry humour on stage. He and his band have toured with big-name Americana outfits such as Pokey LaFarge, The Dead South, and Sierra Ferrell. 2026 sees Rob recording his first ‘solo’ record since 2008, delving deeper into that lonesome country sound, yodelling cowboy songs, and more intimate song-writing. Conrad Bird is a rambling rover from North Yorkshire, and after over a decade of fronting the very popular festival act, Holy Moly & The Crackers, he is finally taking it back to the roots, with a brand-new solo EP of poetic folk songs, and Dylan-inspired balladeering. His gravelly voice and his on-stage story-telling result in a very charming stage show. Together, the Cumbrian cowboy, and the Yorkshire rover are heading off on a country-wide tour, both promoting their new solo releases, and briefly taking a step back from the wild rock & roll circus!

Some Foreign Shore is an enchanting new collaboration between “one of the finest fingerstyle guitarists of his generation” Dariush Kanani and “the voice of fairytales” Daria Kulesh – an afternoon of pure escapism into the music of Anne Briggs, Sandy Denny, Bert Jansch, and other folk greats. Dariush “captures the spirit of the great players like Bert Jansch and John Renbourn and makes it his own” (Gordon Giltrap) while Daria is “one of the finest voices on the present folk scene” (Mike Harding), compared to both Sandy Denny and Loreena McKennitt.

Stephen Catling: Clown Fish Out of water

Cosy Club · Nottingham

When clowns can't breathe water and fish can't breathe air – what's a poor Clown Fish to do in this cruel world? In 2025, Catling (Keep It Fringe Award Winner 2023, Malcolm Hardee Award Nominee 2023 and 2025) lost his slug mask. It was an essential part of his cult hit show Moving On...Really Really Slowly. This time, Stephen explores his life now that Autism has been “unmasked", as well as his fin flapping rage against an increasingly soulless entertainment industry. Who knows what is going to be in store? ☆☆☆☆☆ "A delectable, messy and wild amuse-bouche of zany absurdist comedy" The Crumb ☆☆☆☆ "Stephen Catling really is an alternative gem of the Edinburgh Fringe." Fringe fry up ☆☆☆☆"An intelligent man" london theatre 1 ☆☆☆☆ "His absurdist performance is a joy and a masterclass in play." Neurodiverse review ☆☆☆☆ "You’ll laugh cos he’s bonkers, you’ll laugh at the gags and you’ll laugh cos there’s actually no-one else quite like him." Everything Theatre "For if there’s one thing guaranteed in Catling’s work, it’s that you’ll see things that you definitely won’t experience anywhere else in comedy." Chortle

The Wharf · Tavistock

THE EMERALD DAWN are a multi-instrumentalist, symphonic/eclectic progressive music quartet, who combine elements from rock, classical music, jazz, folk and world music to produce their own original, distinctive and exciting sound—a sound that is cinematic, epic, experimental and powerful. Usually haunting, often beautifully melodic and always highly atmospheric, the music of The Emerald Dawn paints images or tells stories that stimulate the imagination and takes the listener on unforgettable musical journeys. The Emerald Dawn have been making huge waves in the UK prog scene over the past few years, having made it into the top ten in both the Best Band/Artist and Best Album categories in the 2023 annual Prog Magazine Readers' Poll. The band won the best performance vote at HRH Prog XII in 2023, the largest prog festival in the UK. This summer the band will be headlining at the 2024 Soundle music festival.
