  Brighton Acoustic
  Session
  The Lord Nelson, Trafalgar Street BN1 4ED
  
  Monday May 2
  THE LONG HILL
  RAMBLERS
  
  We may be sticking our
  necks out by calling this a supergroup but however you describe it, this line
  up promises great things.
  Ben Paley and Tab Hunter hardly need an introduction but they have now been
  joined by banjo wizard Dan Stewart, also a member of Rattle on the Stovepipe.
  
  All the focus, however, will be on Laura Hockenhull , the outstanding young
  singer whose stunning vocal style has been described as “folk music’s best
  kept secret.”
  
  This will be their first public appearance as a quartet and is already
  attracting a huge interest from far and wide.
  There has already been an unprecedented number of requests for floor spots so
  if you would like to sing or play arrival well before our 8.30 start is
  advisable.
  A preview of Laura on stage here
