Hot on the heels of three sold-out London gigs in 2025, and a string of successful shows across the UK, Cian Downing and his band return to London to continue promoting their debut album 'The Grassroots to the Sky.' Cian's gigs have sold out for a reason. Cian has bowled over crowds with his infectious energy, Billy Bragg-esque vocals, and fantastically-crafted songs, brought to life by his exceptional four-piece backing band. Support comes from Cian's label-mates at Heavy Soul Records, The Hornets,a four piece Rhythm & Blues band based in and around London. They have recently played sold out gigs for The Ealing Club, Ram Jam Records, The Hanwell Cavern, Questors Theatre, The Spice Of Life, Mr Wolfs, Slim Jim's Liquor Store, The Crawdaddy Club, and The Isle of Wight Lambretta Day to name a few. They consist of Bailey Penny on Lead Guitar & Vocals, Andrew Pearce on Bass Guitar & Vocals, Ben Finan on Lead Vocals, and Mark Freeman on Drums.
