Forever Queen

Locomotive Engineers Club · Eastleigh

Forever Queen are a four piece Queen tribute band based on the South Coast. The band have been going for 12 years and have played some of the best venues in the UK and abroad. Queen has been one of THE most successful rock bands of all time and, as musicians, it is an honour to be able to recreate their music and image in our show. Playing Queen isn’t about singing their songs, its about the little things as well which we try to show through the music, props, and costumes. We hope that our attention to detail highlights the lengths we go to in order to provide a true experience of Queen

New Years Eve with New Tonic

Locomotive Engineers Club · Eastleigh

Celebrate New Year Eve in style with New Tonic at the Loco From the ashes of naughties Skangsters 2Tonic, New Tonic are a new take on the band with 3 original and 3 new band members. The New Tonic sound is born from all types of influences from the beat and trojan bands of the late 60s and early 70s, right through to the punk explosion and the new wave aftermath of 2Tone/White Reggae/Dub Bands and latterly Britpop. All whilst always adding their own melodic catchy twists. The band is intent on freshening up the scene and has already performed at the IOW Festival, The Cavern Club, Liverpool, The Dublin Castle, Camden. New Tonic have also played alongside Lynval Golding and The Specials Family at Specialized UK and have also performed at many other well-known music venues. The band are already making a name for themselves with their electric, energetic live performances as a must-see band.

Mi-Soul Radio has Gordon Mac MBE, Kiss FM in its DNA and thirty years of soul, house and R&B running through everything it does. On Friday nights the two come together on the first floor and the result is exactly what you would hope for. The selectors rotate through the Mi-Soul roster each week, which keeps the sets fresh without ever dropping the standard. Deep soulful house one Friday, classic R&B the next, but always played by someone who has a genuine relationship with the music rather than a playlist and a laptop. Start on the heated terrace with a cocktail overlooking Cabot Square, move inside when the night builds and let the sound system do the rest. First Floor Bar & Heated Garden Terrace Nestled in Cabot Square and overlooking the fountain with the Canary Wharf skyline beyond, the first floor bar and heated garden terrace is a destination in its own right. Fine wines, premium spirits and expertly crafted cocktails, with a selection that covers everything from rar...
