A night of Alternative Acoustic Music comes to Haverfordwest

Jack Bird was recently No1 on the Reverb Nation UK Country Chart with his song Slide and he was also selected to be the featured artist on the Music Industry Website Song-shooter. His music has been described as dark and twisted country blues, Q described one of his recent Bristol gigs thus - “Jack is bar room brawls, smoky pool rooms, juxtapositioned and jangling chords, dusty highways and full of whiskey aching songs.”

Mark Abis has written a number of successful songs, several of which have appeared on the soundtrack to some very popular American TV programs such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer (the wonderful “Summer Breeze”), Eli Stone and Brothers and Sisters and the rather racy Brit TV series Diary of a Call Girl. Joe Boyd (a record producer for, Nick Drake, Pink Floyd, Sandy Denny, REM and Fairport Convention) said Mark Abis has “My vote for one of the best of the new generation” - taking a break from finishing his new album Mark will be performing a solo acoustic set that is sure to delight everyone.
