The Kendall ConnectionSpearheaded by guitarist, singer / songwriter Nick Kendall, four of London's finest session musicians joined forces to create their unique and exciting blend of Blues-Rock, with elements of country, jazz, and funk thrown into the mix. From the outset the Kendall strove to write songs which have sections for the band to express themselves instrumentally through improvised solos, while still melodically and lyrically connecting with the everyday man. The band members have performed on stage with the likes of 10cc, Sting, Brian May, Tony Hadley, Adele, Paul Weller, Alice Cooper, Gordon Giltrap and many more, as well as performing in over 20 shows in London's West End including, Rock of Ages, Jersey Boys, Moulin Rouge, Sunny Afternoon, Back to the Future, School of Rock and We Will Rock You, and Jools Holland invited the band to support him on tour. The Kendall Connection have just released tow full length albums, 'Blood & Water' followed their self titled debut album which was reviewed in Blues Matters Magazine as "One of the best debut albums this reviewer has heard in a long time".
Hare & Hounds
Most gigs, if not all, of the Saturday Blues Club from 4pm are free but please check with the venue about tickets and pricing before.
Situated in the South Birmingham suburb of Kings Heath, the Hare & Hounds has been around since 1820, but has stood in its present form since 1907. This is a major contributing factor to its current Grade II listed status, along with the beautiful and unique Art Nouveau tiles that line the entry hall and staircase.
Although playing host to local Birmingham legends UB40’s first ever gig in 1979, it is only since 2007 that it’s really established itself as one of the most important and influential music venues in the country, playing a vital part in nurturing the city’s vibrant music and creative community.
The pub boasts two downstairs bars which host a weekly pub quiz on Wednesdays, the hugely popular Blues Club on Saturday afternoons, comedy workshops and more. The two famous upstairs venues feature live music & club nights spanning jazz, indie, funk, reggae, hip hop, soul, house, techno, drum & bass and beyond.
