Shots from the October 9th One Nation session at the Clarendon pub in Leamington Spa. Performing that night were
Wes Finch & The Dirty Band, and
Kel Elliott and The Band.
Wes Finch & The Dirty BandFrom the
Coventry Evening Telegraph, "Standing on the edges, well apart from Coventry's generic indie scene, pointing and laughing like a gaggle of well-mannered Dingles at their more conventionally hip counterparts, this lot are a band apart.
Their real strength has always been in live performance, an experience which splutters then ignites into a joyous celebration of life and all its peaks and pitfalls."
Kel ElliottFrom her
biography, "Bright, new artist Kel Elliott is not only a singer and a writer, but a double bass player too...she is a singing double bass playing writer, to be precise.
Born into a long line of musicians, her flair is half inherited, and half influenced by artists such as Tom Waits, Michelle Shocked and Bonnie Raitt, and inspired by contemporaries such as Madeleine Peyroux, Kt Tunstall and Norah Jones."
