The first Music Night of the New Year at Sunbury Cricket Club comes round very quickly, and falls on Friday 10th January, when the Club welcomes back THE NASHVILLE TEENS in their traditional January slot to blow away the January blues.

THE NASHVILLE TEENS are one of the great names from the ‘60s who had two memorable Top Ten hits in 1964 with “Tobacco Road” and “Google Eye”, and have played storming gigs for the Club over many years. The line-up features their original lead singer Ray Phillips, who has had an unbroken half-century career with the band, as well as making solo records and performing with other line-ups like the British Invasion All-Stars with members of The Yardbirds, Creation and Downliners Sect.

With him in the current Nashville Teens is their established line-up of seasoned performers, including on bass Colin Pattenden, member of Manfred Mann’s Earth Band when they had their big hits back in the 70s, plus  Simon Spratley of The Ian Campbell Blues Band on keyboards, Ken Osborn from Levee Camp Moan on guitar and Adrian ‘Spud’ Metcalf on drums. It will be another night of classic ‘60s R&B, featuring in Ray one of the great voices of the beat era. There’s more information at www.Nashville-Teens.com.

Hot food, prepared by resident caterers Surplus To Supper, will be available as usual from about 6.30pm, with the band on stage around 8.30 pm or soon after, so the Club hopes you can make it down to get this year’s Music Nights off to a cracking start and looks forward to seeing you next week. In the meantime, may we wish you all the best for 2025 – we will try to make sure there’s some fine entertainment at the Cricket Club during the year.

Admission is £10.00 on the door, payable by cash or card.
