There’s live music every second Saturday of the month at Big Club and the emphasis has been on local talent. Saturday 12th August saw Aycliffe lad, Darren Kent, as The Kent Collective performing mod, soul and ska covers and there were plenty up dancing. Supported by Barnard Castle’s brilliant young band The Thieves it was an excellent night. Big Club promoter, Jack Hall is slowly building his audience and prefers to use local talent whenever possible. Saturday 9th September and Aycliffe band Another Crisis take to the stage again after many requests for them to return. Tickets are available at The Big Club and more information on Facebook and www.biffbangpowpromote.co.uk Photo: The Kent Collective and The Thieves collaborate for The Who’s ‘My Generation’
