GRAPEVINE is all about REAL music, and a grassroots approach to spreading the word about exciting new talent. Our nights are run by people who care passionately about music, and want to offer an alternative to the corporate hype and stadium gig mentality. At a Grapevine night you can experience quality live music played straight from the heart in an intimate and welcoming environment. If you love music, you will feel right at home !
Each month, our audience is treated to an eclectic, carefully-chosen mix of styles performed by artists from all over the UK and even further afield. ( To date, we have featured artists from Norway, Ireland and the USA and are soon to welcome our first Australian artist ! )
With the option to enjoy a meal or light snack before settling back to soak up some top-quality music over a few drinks, you have the makings of the perfect laid-back musical evening, which has been a hit with both artists and audience members alike.
Grapevine nights are held in Bedfords Bar and Restaurant, a beautifully atmospheric Merchants Hall and Grade 1 listed building right in the heart of Norwich. An intimate, candlelit atmosphere is created, with audience members either seated at tables or on sofas, the playing area is decked out with fairy lights and low-key stage lighting, and sound is reinforced through a small but clear PA system. In short, we try to make it a professional but warm and friendly event !
The reaction from visiting artists, many of whom are visiting Norwich for the first time, has been reassuringly enthusiastic and positive, and we have witnessed some dazzling performances so far.
If you are interested to see who has played for us to date, then take a look at our photo gallery or the " Roll of Honour " blog, which is updated after each night.
Our forthcoming artists can be found in the Top Friends list...or why not click their names in the announcement below, and give them a listen ? If you like what you hear, you can either take your chance and turn up on the night, or ring and book a table and join us from around 7pm to enjoy a bite to eat before the show starts around 8pm ( For reservations, please ring Bedfords on 01603-666869 and mention Grapevine )
Please come along and give us a look. We think you will be surprised by the quality and range of unsung talent to be enjoyed, and live music in an intimate setting simply cannot be beaten.
