That's how we roll at The Clare Inn

7.45 pm Looking For Alaska NZ (with band)
"Influenced by the likes of The Civil Wars and The Decemberists, the pair have been quickly establishing a sound that is uniquely them. Having delighted audiences opening for bands such as Fly My Pretties and The Herbs"

8.30pm The Acfields (touring folk duo direct from Australia)
“There’s no denying the power of their sibling harmony and they have a striking ear for song crafting and instrumental arrangement“ - Rhythm Magazine

9.15 pm Superturtle
Latest LP Beat Manifesto is clever and quirky and damn, there are some fine tunes here. It’s all so familiar – and yet you don’t know any of these songs, even though Down Down Down, Lost In The Herd Again, Because Ya Said So and Happy Pills all feel like songs that should/could have been hits. - Simon Sweetman

10.00 pm Bad Week For Disco
Twisted Disco- A few of their cover choices such as Bowie and Franz Ferdinand hint at the flavour of their original material.
