The Cricket Club is delighted to welcome the excellent Hampton-based Venice Red, led by guitarist, harmonica player and vocalist Chris Allard, a great supporter of the music nights and a former colleague of Karl Green and Kevin Welling before the formation of Dave's Not Here. Before he headed for London, Chris's career goes back to the '60s with Hades and Nottinghams's top prog rock outfit Dawn Trader, who opened for Def Leppard, Krokus and Saxon over the years. Some readers will know vocalist Sarah Burley from when she ran the excellent music venue, the Duke's Head in Hampton, and the line-up is completed by Graham Reed on alto sax, Paul Chaplin on tenor sax, Nick Taimitarha (keyboards), Pete Horsnell (bass) and Chris Kerrigan (drums).
They play an eclectic mix of rock, soul and R&B classics, and it will be an entertaining evening in the true Sunbury Music Night mould.
