The Cover Up is a 4 piece covers band. We seem to specialise in 50th birthday parties – maybe that’s just showing our age – but we are available for any type of party/gathering where there are people who’d like to dance, sing, listen to live music and have a good time. For all the band members being in The Cover Up isn’t the ‘day job’. 
It’s a means of entertainment and our view is that if we are having fun our audience will have fun too!
Our set list covers a wide range of songs that show the band members’ eclectic musical taste. From funk to rock to pop….. and back again and our main criteria when choosing a new song is ‘Will this get people onto the dance floor?’.
Newick Folk play the music of these islands. This means mainly traditional music plus anything else that takes our fancy. 
That could range from Lily the Pink and My Old Man’s a Dustman to the themes from Captain Pugwash or Blackadder and maybe even Rave on / Bye Bye Love or the La Mer. We set out to entertain you and we love it when people get up and dance. We play at lots of Ceilidhs for Weddings and significant birthday events where there is a wide range of ages.
We are based in Newick and play many local events and sessions throughout Sussex with occasional ventures to Kent, Surrey and the nearer bits of London
This session will be presented by Mike and Marie featuring three 45 minute performances by different acoustic duos.
14.00 Purple Shoes Duo
The Purple Shoes are a British female fronted Folk Rock band with a Country and Folk Pop twist. Their music is drenched in beautiful melodies and “harmonious lusciousness” with a thumping back beat and double bass. Often compared to Fleetwood Mac with a Travelling Wilburys vibe, The Purple Shoes are honest and raw and they carry you along with the sheer fun they are having.
15.00 Dark Horse Duo
Dark Horse Duo are Steve Brown (guitar and vocals) and Kate Emmerson (vocals), a Sussex-based acoustic duo playing all the best in pop, rock, folk, jazz and motown favourites from the 40s to present day. Steve and Kate met at a local Open Mic Night and bonded over a mutual music taste; with a few classics, a few surprises and a ton of great foot stomping tunes.
16.00 To be advised

The Market Street Band play a mixture of blues, rock ‘n’roll and soulful ballads ranging over several decades.
Their sophisticated, tasty classics leave the audience shouting for more.
Rusty Mondays are a bunch of mid life crisis fuelled Lindfield based old rockers. They masquerade as an alt punk/rock 5 piece covers band, with Brilliant Baz on Bass, Dazzling David on Drums, Legendary Lloyd on Lead, Eccentric Ed on electro-acoustic, and, er, Jammin Jase on Vocals. There has been talk of Jase changing his name to Vic if they make it big!
They burst onto the scene at LAF’17 and have toured widely throughout the village since then. They are now back for more, and promise to be loud and angry – in a very middle aged English home counties kind of way.
