The Poozies

& Holly Kirby

presented by thisisnowhere & Vaguely Sunny

Doors open at 7pm.

£12.00

We’re celebrating “Isle of Wight Day” at The Memorial Hall with a very special concert that is bound to put a spring in your step and a smile on your face by the sensational Scottish all female four piece The Poozies.

This will be the first appearance on the Island for this much loved Scottish quartet for many years and we’re delighted that they’ve agreed to come and entertain us in West Wight this time.  It certainly sounds like the time is right to catch them again (or to see them for the first time) as their new album “Punch!” has been getting rave reviews and we hear that their main stage appearance at this years Cambridge Folk Festival was a barnstorming event.

“…What a mighty sound they make for a four-piece! It’s both bewitching and scary, for there’s also a sinister alchemy at work between the four very different (and self-confessedly off-kilter!) musical personalities – and a keen sense of delicious mischief to boot.” David Kidman, fRoots Magazine

“**** ..this is high-tempo, festival-headlining stuff.”  TimWoodall, Songlines Magazine

Never ones to let their incredible virtuoso musical skills get in the way of them or their audience having a good time Poozies concerts are always a real hoot over brimming with bonhomie and with lashings of energy, vim, verve and sheer pizzazz.

Support this evening is from the Island’s own Holly Kirby. Singer, composer and multi-instrumentalist Holly is a very special  and charming talent whose own songs and cover versions have received hundreds of thousands of hits on youtube. Holly will be on stage at 7.30 so do make sure you get to the Memorial Hall in good time to hear her set!
