I love ALL types of Music. My 63 years has opened me up to decades of fabulous music as it happened. From The Beatles & Beach Boys through to The Carpenters, John Denver, Glam Rock, The Philly Sound, Disco, Punk, Ska, The New Romantics, Electronic Music, The West Coast Sound, ECM Jazz etc etc etc.
As time marches forward, our heroes start to fall away and leave us, either to go to The Great Gig In The Sky or just retirement or perceived lack of an audience. I was never affluent enough to go to gigs until the late 80s. But by God I’ve made up for it now, although for domestic circumstances I’m now limited to Wales. Which is why I’m so grateful to have a venue like Acapela within travelling distance.
I see a lot of artists at what is my favourite venue. It works out over the year that I’m there every week.
And I go to ALL types of gigs. Solo Artists, Groups, Singer Songwriters and various Tribute acts too. Indeed, it is left to the tribute acts to play the songs of our ‘lost heroes’, otherwise we would never hear these songs played live again. Tonight, I witnessed a Tribute ‘Experience’ which is probably THE Best tribute act I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen quite a few I can tell you.

Over the 2 nights, Nick only had a couple of changes so basically we had a full 2 hours plus per night of his greatest hits. A wise decision which paid dividends in crowd participation.I’ll nail my colours to the mast right now and say that Nick is my favourite singer/songwriter and has been since I first heard him strike a chord on the debut Haircut100 release.
So he kicks off with his second solo single from his debut album, 1993’s North Of A Miracle but with a twist. Shorn of it’s horns it turns into a bluesy almost Bossa Nova version.

We have been informed this afternoon that the above concert has been cancelled by Karine due to illness. She has sent the following message.
Unfortunately as Catfish fans may be aware, lead singer and guitarist Matt Long is currently being treated for cancer. I am sure you join us in wishing him all the best with his treatment over the next few months. To help with his recovery, Catfish have drastically cut their bookings for the next few months and will only be doing a few of the festivals during his chemo this summer. The band and Acapela have mutually agreed that Catfish’s performance there will move into Catfish’s spring tour when hopefully Matt will be through his treatment.
The new date will be Wednesday 21 February 2024. All tickets will be valid for this new date, and we very much hope you will join us then to welcome Matt back.
All tickets and tables have been automatically transferred to the new date. If you are unable to make the new date you can request a refund by emailing info@acapela.co.uk by the 31st June 2023. After this date our standard no refund policy will apply.
