Ray McCormack (lead vocals, guitars, mandolin), Tony Jones (vocals, lead Guitar, mandolin) Paul Wade (piano and keyboards). With – Niall Shannahan (Bass) Chris Nannery (Drums) The band was born out of Covid. At the time we had a band called The Midnight Ramblers doing classic R & B covers on the pub circuit. During Covid we had started doing live shows from Ray's house every Thursday during lockdown throughout 2020 and inviting other musicians over to play, a bit like live from Daryl's house. We thought it would be good to turn this downtime into something even more positive and write an album of original songs and so it was agreed. Writing commenced in 2021 and on 10th February 2022 the recording of the songs started with Stuart Gray in his Jealoustown Studios. The recording of the Album is now completed with the last 2 songs now being mixed and mastered. It has taken 4 years from conception.Our forthcoming album is called Light from another place. We like to think of ourselves as ‘’new old school’’. Information Source: Arthur's Blues & Jazz Club | eventbrite

esea contemporary is pleased to present ‘Tracing the Story of a Replica’, a pair of creative workshops that delve into the diffusion, function, and reproducibility of ritual objects. These hands-on sessions draw inspiration from our current exhibition, ‘Shadow and Void: Buddha¹⁰’, and invite participants to reflect on the journey of Buddhist artefacts, their meaning, and their transformation across time and cultures. Guided by a member of the esea contemporary team, participants will craft small replicas of Buddhist figurines using plaster or resin moulds. These moulds are based on a historic bronze sculpture currently on display at esea contemporary, on loan from MAO (Museum of Asian Art), Turin. Originally created as votive and domestic objects, the bronze sculptures embody the spread of Buddhist iconography across Asia. Through this process, participants will explore questions central to the exhibition, such as: What does it mean to reproduce a sacred object? How does its meaning shift across different contexts? How do replicas preserve—or reshape—traditions? The workshop also includes a guided tour of the exhibition, offering insights into the historical and sensory connections between the ancient artefacts and contemporary installations. Participants will discover how the exhibition bridges the gap between cultural heritage and contemporary art, using restoration and reinterpretation to spark new dialogues about spirituality and identity. These workshops offer a unique opportunity to engage with the cycles of making and meaning, reflecting on themes of cultural displacement, ritual practice, and authenticity. By creating these figurines, participants will connect with Buddhist traditions and take home a tangible symbol of spirituality and heritage, reimagined through the lens of contemporary creativity. These sessions are available on two dates: Saturday, 22 February 2025, 13:00–15:00Saturday, 12 April 2025, 13:00–15:00Open to all ages, these workshops were developed by the educational department at MAO (Museum of Asian Art), Turin.

Vancouver-based alternative singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jon Bryant mines through his mind, alchemizing feelings into open-hearted lyrics and organic instrumentation. As he experiments with tones, textures, and words, you can hear him figuring out life in real-time. His fifth album, Therapy Notes , channels the catharsis and clarity of a therapy session. That’s why he’s consistently struck a chord with listeners worldwide. His story has unfolded on a series of releases —Two Coasts For Comfort , What Takes You , Twenty Something , Cult Classic , Half Bad , Back To Love , and Psychedelic Salutations . Plus, he incited tastemaker praise courtesy of The Line of Best Fit, Atwood, and more. In the five years since his last full-length, he leaned on music to endure “the canceling and delaying of tours, mourning of lost opportunity, and the existential dread that came with all of that.” As a result, Therapy Notes inspires you to open up. “When you listen to me, I want you to be curious about life,” he leaves off. “Always look for opportunities to engage the world and express yourself authentically. For me, music is about making people fall in love with life and each other.” Doors open 7pm. Information Source: Bella Rose Arts Centre | eventbrite
