The Blue Bottles Sunday Music Nights offers a magical venue for contemporary music down on the Point Waterfront next to the Famous Fish Factory restaurant.

The next event takes place on January 6 with The Delta Blues and Mississippi heartache Durban style with Will Wallace, Richard Haslop and Rob van der Linde.

Richard is described as “not just a pretty radio voice with an encyclopaedic head and heart for great folk music” but also an accomplished blues slide guitar player, a mandolinist and singer. Will Wallace (who appeared in the smash hit Those Were The Days) will present his unique electric guitar style and vocal harmony as will guitarist/vocalist Rob Vee.

All unplugged, acoustic, singer songwriters, poets and stand-ups are invited to “bring your instrument and attitude and get down to the Point and join in on any Sunday”. Those acts who are not booked or featured but who wish to perform must arrive before 18h00, put their names down and do a quick sound-check as the evenings are being limited to three or four acts. First come first served.

Proceeds from all the BB Sunday evening shows will go to the Hidden Years Music Archive Project.
