Brett Eldredge was one of the stand-out performers at C2C 2019, so anticipation for his follow-up UK tour was inevitably high. Having taken a break from social media and kept himself away from the spotlight for a while, Brett finally has new music on the horizon, and this was a […]

A London landmark, The Betsey Trotwood pub has been extending a warm welcome for well over a century. The Betsey has also built a deserved reputation as a music venue, nothing fancy, a couple of tables and chairs pushed back to create a space for a few guitars and keyboard. […]
