About Me

In July 2006 two musicians were longing for somewhere to perform, somewhere local. They set out to hold a night of live music in Ampthill.
What began as one night evolved into six weeks at the Ossory Arms. Each week saw the likes of Fran Bove, James Wilde, Patrick Reece, Aneiren Reece and Ben O'Donnel, Jenny and Lee Hewitt, New Groove Formation and even James Budd perform.
The night now moves to The Albion Arms in Ampthill to continue bringing live acoustic music to the locals every Thursday from 8.30pm.
Lineups will be announced each fortnight in our blogs so check back regularly
If you are interested in performing contact avenue promotions here or at [email protected]
