Jerry Joseph

Jerry Joseph

Black Cat Music, 🐈‍⬛, the Green Note and Evans Above are delighted to present the Jerry Joseph London Residency of November 2024

Tickets here: www.wegottickets.com

Jerry Joseph is a musician who lives in Portland Oregon, but he’s often gone. He’s been inducted into the Oregon Music Hall of Fame but is still rather obscure to a lot of people. He plays well over 150 shows a year in the usual places. Across America. Sometimes in Europe, Mexico, and Central America. Then there’s these other places he plays—Lebanon, Israel, Kurdish Iraq, India, and Afghanistan. All over the Middle East, often in war zones and refugee camps.

In addition to his touring, Jerry has set up a non-profit called Nomad Music Foundation that acts as a sort of School of Rock for displaced teenagers in areas of conflict. So far, he has taken guitars and taught lessons in camps in Kabul, Afghanistan, and Sulaymaniyah and Dahuk, both in Kurdish Iraq. These life-changing missions have been written up in Rolling Stone, Relix, and PBS News Hour.

Oh yeah, and he’s really ****ing great.

The gig will be in the downstairs room and is standing - if you need a seat please contact Black Cat Promotions

Morris Folk Club

The Morris Folk Club runs on the last Tuesday of most months (excepting December and some other holiday months). Entry is free, and all are warmly welcome. 

Morris Folk Club runs 7.30pm-10.30pm-ish.

Check Twitter and Facebook for information on what's happening this month, not least in case of cancellations or special themes, or sign up to the Morris emailing list.

Our Folk Club runs from 7.30pm till about 10.30pm, and generally follows an open, floor performers/singers night format. You can just listen, and sing along, if you like, or you can perform. Let the MC know if you'd like to sing or play something - it's typically up to one item per half, time permitting. It's always a very appreciative audience - and, if you're worried about that kind of thing (which you shouldn't be), a supportive and forgiving one too.

A unique part of Morris Folk Club is that it incorporates elements of 'open choir rehearsal', when anyone can get a taste of singing with the choir, as during the evening we all together learn a song or two or go over an old favourite.

We'll play songs from my new album, 'Vide Grenier', which comes out in February (first single from it, 'Pomme de Terre', out now). We'll also dig into my back catalogue of solo stuff and play some Departure Lounge and Kid Loco material as well as a few choice covers. Very happy to be finally playing at The Betsy.

Kelsey Michael + Montague Armstrong

Kelsey Michael

Kelsey celebrates the release of her debut solo album Lethowsow on DimpleDisc CD and LP: Listen: https://orcd.co/kelseylethowsow  Lethowsow has been championed by Gilles Peterson on BBC 6 music, and enthusiastically reviewed by Uncut; ‘this beguiling debut is infused with natural wonder.’ The sonic vision for Kelsey’s music laces her love for uplifting 60s and 70s classic singer-song writing - artists such as Laura Nyro and Carole King - with a contemporary art-pop edge. Lethowsow, an old Cornish word meaning ‘the milky ones’was a name for the Seven Stones reef off Lands End.The sea is a major character in Kelsey’s music, along with the nature and wildlife of farthest West Cornwall where she lives. Storytelling, folky drones, dynamic vocals and dreamy cinematic song-landscapes all play a part in her live show, performed with High Llamas bassist Jon Fell.

Kelsey features on Jocelyn Pook’s score for Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut and sings on many High Llamas albums.

The Green Ray + The Othyrs + Simon Bromide Band

Clerkenville East-West returns to rock out the basement of the wonderful Betsey Trotwood pub with a triple bill of acid guitar goodness and crunchy pop. Just £8 in advance or £10 on the door.

Tickets here: www.wegottickets.com

With roots in much-loved 70s band Help Yourself, THE GREEN RAY have survived the tragic passing of four members to build a reputation as one of the UK's preeminent psychedelic rock bands, their guitar explorations recalling the Haight-Ashbury greats, and taking in elements of country rock and improvisational blues and jazz.
https://thegreenray.bandcamp.com/music

THE OTHYRS, featuring guitarist Andy Golding of acclaimed indie/ C86 rockers The Wolfhounds and assorted family members, are possibly the most exciting musical dynasty since the Osmonds put out Crazy Horses! A compelling mix of Andy's post-punk roots, VU and Krautrock grooves.
https://www.facebook.com/TheOthyrs

The SIMON BROMIDE BAND are the vehicle for south London tour de force Simon's solo output (the man behind Scratchy Records, he also plays and records with indie rockers Bromide...confused, you will be). Simon will be playing songs from his much lauded LP 'Following The Moon'. Vive Le Rock - 9/10 - "The ghosts of Johnny Marr, Peter Perrett and XTC joust with psychedelic sounds and neo-folk".

Tickets via www.wegottickets.com

Matthew Edwards and the Birmingham Poets
Matthew 'Ted' Edwards has been making compelling music for decades, from his Birmingham roots to his San Francisco home. It's a pleasure to welcome him back to the Betsey for a set of urgent, powerful and lyrical songs, all of his own making.

Polite Company
Alan Gregg was for many years a member of the New Zealand band The Mutton Birds. Now he's back with a new band and some fresh songs, as catchy as those of old. We're honoured to host their debut acoustic performance tonight.

Sukie Smith
Singer-songwriter-actress-artist Sukie Smith, once the force behind the critically acclaimed band Madam, is back with her debut solo album, The Glass Dress and a Ringing Bell, released on Shillingboy Records. We're really looking forward to her playing songs new and old.

bushpilot + SILKess Demon

Tickets here! or £5 on the door

bushpilot have released 3 critically acclaimed albums on God Unknown records, all recorded in the early 1990s and unreleased until 2020 to an excellent critical reception.

Tristan Bath in the Quietus wrote: "A post punk, post noise update of the far headier krautrock bands". Reza Mills in the Sleeping Shaman wrote: "sounds like Malcolm Mooney fronting the much-overlooked Minutemen." Gonzo Circus (Amsterdam) wrote: "Think Can, the Fall, the Jesus Lizard, and the catchy danceable pop of Liquid Liquid, Medium Medium, and the Pop Group."

A new single from bushpilot, Rockitman is coming out in November, and new material has been recorded, and will be previewed at this show alongside older highlights.

SILKess Demon is the project of outsider artist and former singer and flautist of feral freak folk group Jesus Licks, Dominique Golden, who is joined by Nik Clifford (also of bushpilot and Jesus Licks) on banjo, and Vincent Clifford on drums.
