SUMMARY:Danni Nicholls at Little Rabbit Barn\, Ardleigh (full band show)
DESCRIPTION:Email live@littlerabbitbarn.com to reserve places \nFollowing the release of her new album Making Moves\, Danni Nicholls heads back to the UK this August and September. Rooted in Americana and rich storytelling\, her songs explore resilience\, change and the journey back to self — delivered with warmth\, grit\, and a captivating live presence. \nNow Nashville based but originally from Bedford she grew up on a diet of the American roots music of her Anglo-Indian grandmother’s record collection and has been steadily paving her way on the global Americana scene. \nShe has put out one acclaimed release after another and has the wind in her sails from multiple award nominations\, extensive tours and opening slots with the likes of The Secret Sisters\, Sturgill Simpson and Lucinda Williams. \nDanni sings dynamic poetic original material using her powerful vocals to span the Americana spectrum from country and blues to jazz\, folk and soul.

SUMMARY:Hollywood Vampires // UK Tour 2026 // Colchester
DESCRIPTION:American rock supergroup Hollywood Vampires featuring Alice Cooper\, Johnny Depp\, Joe Perry and Tommy Henriksen return to the UK this summer as part of their hugely anticipated UK tour\, marking their first live shows in almost three years. \nIt’s been a decade since Hollywood Vampires first came together — and they’re still raising hell on stage. Formed in 2015\, the band bonded over a shared love of their favourite songs and a desire to celebrate their ‘dead\, drunk friends’ by playing the music of rock’s fallen heroes. Named after Alice Cooper’s 1970s drinking club\, which included the likes of John Lennon\, Keith Moon and Mickey Dolenz\, Hollywood Vampires quickly earned a reputation for blistering live shows – a riotous mix of original anthems and tributes to the legends who inspired them. \nTheir sets are a raucous celebration of rock’s greatest icons\, performed alongside their own powerhouse material. Hollywood Vampires’ shows feature stone-cold classics from The Who\, Led Zeppelin\, David Bowie\, Motörhead\, The Doors\, AC/DC and more\, alongside hits from Alice Cooper and Aerosmith. There is a documentary in the works called “Unleashed Spirits – The Rise of The Hollywood Vampires” and a trailer can now be viewed at www.hollywoodvampires.com \n“After almost three years away\, we’re finally coming back to tour the UK and Europe— We’re looking forward to Incredible crowds\, massive energy and more unforgettable nights. See you all soon!” – Hollywood Vampires \nThe Damned are supporting Hollywood Vampires with 12 studio albums – including the era-defining Damned Damned Damned – and several UK chart singles under their belts\, the legends mark their 50th anniversary with a new tour and album. Released on Friday January 23\, Not Like Everybody Else is a deeply personal and celebratory covers album dedicated to the memory of Brian James\, the bands legendary founding guitarist who died in 2025. \nFriday 21 August 2026\, 17:00 to 22:30.PLEASE NOTE\, RE-ENTRY IS NOT POSSIBLE AT THIS EVENT. \nThis event is classified at 6+\, this means that anyone between 6 years and 17 years of age must be accompanied by an adult over the age of 21 (adult refers to a parent\, guardian or older relative that is responsible for the care and actions of the under 18 year old).

SUMMARY:Nana Benz Du Togo
DESCRIPTION:Tickets £15 / £13 concessions.Doors open 7.30pm\, starts 8pm.This gig is for a standing audience. \nOrganic-electronic feminist songs from West Africa. \nVoodoo tradition meets soul—built for the dance floor. There are five of them—like the fingers of one hand. A hand ready to form a fist and strike with power\, or gently caress the earth with groove and grace. \nNana Benz du Togo channels an organic sound steeped in sub-bass and layered with complex polyrhythms\, creating a hypnotic foundation for the voices of three electrifying electro-soul preachers. \nArmed with nothing more than their voices and a vintage Korg keyboard\, this powerful ensemble crafts a sound that’s both raw and transcendent. Their live shows are nothing short of spiritual—a blend of ancestral energy and modern fire that has left thousands in a trance across European stages. \nBandcamp:https://nanabenzdutogo.bandcamp.com/album/ago \nNana Benz Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/intl-pt/artist/4GhejcivCG3Eyp9iMwnxEp \nVideo:https://www.youtube.com/watchv=hyTXiThYWRo&list=RDhyTXiThYWRo&start_radio=1 \nKexp Session:https://www.youtube.com/watchv=8uDs4X93MYo&list=RD8uDs4X93MYo&start_radio=1&t=768s
