About this event

Blue Rose Code is on Wednesday 25 November 2026 at Leytonstone Social Club, London, with doors at 19:30. Tickets start at £19.80, including the booking fee.

Blue Rose Code is a band led by Edinburgh-born songwriter Ross Wilson. At the edge of contemporary alt-folk, Wilson's music evokes a meeting of Van Morrison and a young John Martyn, both shipwrecked with a bunch of Motown records. Following headline performances in 2024 at Cambridge Folk Festival and Gate To Southwell with his nine-piece Caley Soul band as well as a sold out bravura show for Celtic Connections at Glasgow's 1400 capacity Pavillion Theatre, Wilson has spent the last few months reconnecting with his roots in live club performance. Touring solo, duo, or quartet in 2025, the shows have workshopped new songs for 2026's new Blue Rose Code studio album. The direction of travel seems to be closer to the broad Scots Folk/Singer Songwriter style that brought him to work with the likes of Karine Polwart, Beth Nielsen Chapman, Ewan McGregor, to write for Steve Knightley, and open for heavyweights like Van Morrison, Deacon Blue and the Proclaimers. In any combination; solo, duo, quartet, Big Caley Soul Band, Blue Rose Code simply has to be seen live.

Satellite Inn (Italy) / Elaine Palmer Band

Leytonstone Social Club · London

Not many original bands have alt.country pioneers bloodline (Satellite Inn's first record, Cold Morning Songs, came out in 1998 and got praised by the alternative press), nice stories to tell (in 1997 Satellite Inn got signed on a US label, MoodFood Records, to replace Whiskeytown that went on a major label) and great collaborations (their lead singer, Stiv Cantarelli, put out a solo album with Richmond Fontaine as backing band). The fact that they always preferred to shy away from the bright lights playing smokey pubs and roadside bars it only proves that they stayed true with themselves. Back in 2002, Satellite Inn were the italian touring band for Robert Fisher (Willard Grant Conspiracy). That persuaded him to handle the production of what it should have been Satellite Inn’s second album. What did happen is that MoodFood Records went out of business and the band on permanent hiatus, as well as the songs included in that demo. After the self- release of their 2024 eponymous album, Satellite Inn, almost a decade since the death of Robert Fisher that lost songs reappeared in a box of Satellite Inn’s unused master tapes. The material was so inspiring for the band that they decid...

Amy Winehouse by Lucy Randell

Boisdale of Canary Wharf · London

“It’s rare you see such an effortless talent. Lucy is charismatic and cool through and through.” – Mathew Bridgeman, Promoter Lucy Randell approaches Amy Winehouse’s catalogue with a deep respect for its musical complexity. She emphasizes timing, phrasing and tonal contrast, the way Winehouse would land a word just behind the beat or hang a note into silence, rather than surface imitation. Lucy rejects mimicry; she interprets the songs through her own jazz and soul sensibility. Her career includes features with session groups and appearances around the UK and Australia, and she has performed at venues like Ronnie Scott’s, The Jazz Café and KOKO, stages Amy herself frequented. In a Camden Market event, Lucy articulated her method: “To sing Amy Winehouse you have to recognise that rhythm and tonal texture, and her timing. You really have to listen to how she lands her syllables.” Camden New Journal Expect a set drawn from Back to Black and Frank, delivered with Lucy’s own instrumentation and arrangements. Highlights often include “Valerie,” “Tears Dry On Their Own,” “Rehab,” “Back to Black,” “Love Is a Losing Game”. She yields space for the band...

HeKz - LIVE IN LONDON

The Bedford · London

Progressive metal band HeKz operate outside of convention. The quartet blend heavy metal weight with classical composition, creating music that is technical, emotional and deliberately uncompromising. With a string of critically acclaimed releases under their belt, the latest album, "Qisma" captures HeKz at their most fearless and inventive. The band will be performing a special setlist focussing on "Qisma" at The Bedford, Balham on Wednesday 25th November 2026. This one-off event promises to be an immersive experience, not to be missed by those who like their prog with a harder edge. "'Qisma' is an allegory for the moment that we're living through," reflects vocalist Matt Young. "It's a fully fledged concept album, like a rock opera but told with a single voice from a single perspective, for the most part. We're really excited about presenting the album live in this way, and a beautiful and captivating venue like The Bedford is the perfect place to make such an ambitious undertaking." STELLAR KNIGHTS is a London-based rock duo formed during the pandemic by vocalist Stella and guitarist Duncan. They take inspiration from gothic rock, metal, and progressive music, blending heavy rif...
