Jana Peri

New York, USA based Jana Peri is an electrifying live performer whose shows never fail to get crowds on their feet and dancing.

 

In late September 2005 Jana and her band embarked on a ten-day tour of the UK, playing high profile gigs in major cities as well as more intimate shows in small towns including two great shows at The Aspinall Arms. Jana’s album “Catching Flies with Vinegar” (see review) is definitely well worth a listen and you can catch tracks from it by visiting either Jana’s web page or Myspace sites which are linked below We very much look forward to a return visit sometime in the future?

Jana Peri New York USA

 

Catching Flies With Vinegar 2005

"Her first full length album, "Catching Flies With Vinegar," is loaded with sassy, hook-laden tunes. The tracks have a Beatleseque quality, but they also pack a punch reminiscent of Chrissie Hynde's finest moments with the Pretenders. What is especially appealing about the disc is that it is filled with emotion and vulnerability...she has a rock star's aura, something that's on the edge of extinction."

Café bar 401

Hey there!
”We had an absolute fantastic time at the Aspinall! Never felt such at home at a gig ;-) We drove back on Saturday morning and because of our bus broke down 20 miles above London (reducing top speed to about 40 mph), it took us about 22 hours to get back home... After a night like the night before (haven't counted the beers and cocktails.) that was quite the ride. But it was definitely worth it! We'll off course send the new CD when it's ready.
Greets to you all

Bluesbunny Review

CME Tour 2006 The Aspinall Arms

Laura Younger

Friday the 13th. Something strange was bound to happen. Bluesbunny gets the beers in anyway. It's Copper Dragon ale. So far, so good. Nearly 9pm. No sign of a band anywhere. Bluesbunny is getting worried. Might well be trapped here with only beer to distract us from reality. No need to panic just yet. They have not run out of beer….

Ragamuffins Logo

 

The Ragamuffins (formerly The Rascallies) played  at The Aspinall Arms on Friday 7th & Saturday  08th April 2007

 

An extended 3 hour plus set showed just how talented local singer songwriter David Jaggs and his band are.

 

An eclectic mix of covers ranging from Neil Young , to the La’s “There she Goes” plus tracks from superb sampler EP ”Hit The Ground Running” demonstrated plenty of Merseyside influences plus a touch of the Kinks maybe?

Whatever, if you enjoy your music, live, fun, and played with huge enthusiasm this band are a must see.

Breaking Laces

The Aspinall Arms January 2008

 

“Well this is somewhat delayed, mostly because we played a few shows here, and it's hard to pick out what special events might have occurred on this night. I know we were strong on our set, especially some of the new songs that we were very shaky on when we came out to the UK. And we did blow some of these out, to an eager audience that knew this was the last time they might see us for a while.

I do remember that a lot of friends came out to see us, people we love dearly now, even though we've spent such a relatively short time in the UK. But it made it a special night that so many people from this tour and the last came out to wish us a fond farewell. Simon made sure the Wobbly Bob, a stronger local brew, was in full swing, and the Laces promptly drained the keg clean.

In the absence of strong details of the night, i should take this moment to heartfully thank Simon and the crew at Aspinall Arms. McLovin (Marco), Martin, Ralph, Rachel, Steph, Jill, and now this is the part where people will be mad at me because I didn't remember everyone or everyone's name. But you wonderful people are missed dearly, and thanked heartily for a great time every night we stayed there.

We had a blast, and we hope you did too...”
