AND WE ARE ALWAYS ON THE LOOKOUT FOR MORE

We try and bring new bands to the show and don't book tribute bands. It can hard for emerging talent to get in front of an audience but we try and bring something new, something familiar and occasionally something unexpected to the event for you to enjoy.

If you know a great band that you think might suit the event please feel free to email us info@vdubatthepub.com
