On Friday 10th Jan. the SCC is delighted to welcome to the Club for the first time a great name from the ‘60s who had two memorable Top Ten hits in 1964 with “Tobacco Road” and“Google Eye”. The line-up features their original lead singer Ray Phillips, who has had an unbroken half-century career with the band, as well as making solo records and performing with other line-ups like the British Invasion All-Stars with members of The Yardbirds, Creation and Downliners Sect.
With him in the current Nashville Teens is a line-up of seasoned performers, including Colin Pattenden, member of Manfred Mann’s Earth band when they had their big hits back in the 70s, on bass, with Simon Spratley of The Ian Campbell Blues Band on keyboards, Ken Osborn from Levee Camp Moan on guitar and Adrian ‘Spud’ Metcalf on drums. It will be another night of classic ‘60s R&B to kick the New Year off, featuring in Ray one of the great voices of the beat era. There’s more information, including a fascinating and comprehensive narrative of Ray and the band’s history, at www.Nashville-Teens.com.
Doors open at 8.30, tickets £7.50 at the door.
