Been & gone...
Hot Burrito is held in Le Pub, Newport, it used to be on the first Wednesday of every month but is now more sporadic. Keep a look out here for confirmed dates.

Resident DJs Earl Hawkins (a.k.a. Paul from Diverse Music) and The Maindee Cowboy invite you to a regular hoe down of classic country rock, west coast pop and today's americana, spliced with a hint of blue-grass and historic recordings. We'll be featuring the finest alt.country and americana artists to play live, hopefully from either side of the Atlantic. There'll also be album launches and other special events. Keep checking the blog for an update.
Plaid shirts, leather chaps and cowboy boots positively encouraged!
