Here we proudly present all 88 acts and artists who graced our stage through the years... with as many tags as we know / that will work. Tagging at the moment is a tad hit and miss, so humble apologies if your tag isn't working. We love you all just the same, whether we were able to tag you or not though, we promise! 😁

We salute and give props to the sheer breadth, depth, richness and unarguable high quality, that this region's live music legends carry collectively and as individuals! ☺

Well, well, oh what a night it was, to end all nights! Thanks a zillion to the droves who turned out to see us off on Saturday! Hope you all had a blast!

48 nights, featuring 88 acts, 3 different venues, an enthusiastic passionate volunteer team of 1 that grew to 4, over 9 1/2 years of live musical awesomeness!

Thanks so hugely much, to all of the acts that who so generously shared their artistry and craft with us, and who graced the P & P stage, with their unique, distinctive presence and vibrant energy.

Our aim was to make the night as artist friendly, fun and as warm and welcoming as humanly possible. Plus, to connect the region's finest musical talent, with a local, warm, receptive audience. Quality and diversity were the two beams that we shot for, with every single night that we organised and hosted.

We wish all of the 'P & P artist alumni' much love, joy, rich creativity, beautiful sources of inspiration, success, momentum and support.

We collectively 'cross the finish line' (there's a song about that!) with much gratitude, plenty of fond memories to take away, and feeling proud of all that we achieved together.

Meantime, if you want to revisit some of the songs that featured in our set from 'the last night' on Saturday evening, or, if you missed it, and you wanna see something of what all the fuss was about, here's the place to go in this 'ere link below...stream or download, your choice, but it's only there till end of November, so better get ya skates on, y'all! 😁🎉

Wow, what a fantastic night! Thanks to all that came along to Performers & Pints last night, Saturday 23rd November at The Rising Sun in . The music was as ever amazing and everyone that was there was in awe of the music too. Thanks to Georgia Music, Will Hewer, Karmadillo / Singing Science aka Rishi Nag and to our very own Will Mak Band featuring Will Mak, Charlie Le Bosquet, Jim Phillips and Daryl Gautrey for performing, they were all fantastic! Will and Charlie usually do the sound desk, they performed as well last night. Thanks to the pub for their hospitality, such a great pub, wonderful staff and excellent food as well. Thanks to everyone who attended, we can't Thank You enough, such an atmosphere in the pub last night 🤝 This was our last music night, after Nine and a Half years, 48 music nights and 88 artists / groups which have taken place in three of Potton's pub's, the four of us that run the night feel that after nearly 10 years that the night has come to a natural end. Will created the music night in May 2010 to showcase his own music and that of other local singer songwriters. We could have gone onto May 2020 but we thought no, lets finish at the end of the year rather than half way through a year. Last night was a fitting end and a great send-off to the music night. Thanks to all that came along and performed during Performers & Pints history and to all of you that came along to the event's to support the musicians as well! This page will remain active giving tips of local musicians and bands that will be performing in the area and a bit further a field 🎸🎶🎤🎸🥁🎹🍻🥂🍻☀
