Halesworth Vinyl Collective: "Teenage Symphonies to God" - Brian Wilson & the Beach Boys
The Halesworth Vinyl Collective is a new community-rooted initiative designed to make high quality music listening accessible to everyone and to encourage collaborative vinyl record selection, presentation, listening and discussion. When the Beach Boys appeared, many wrote them off as little more than a novelty act, cashing in on Californias teenage surf and hot rod culture, but leader Brian Wilson had musical ambitions far beyond a bubblegum soundtrack to a life of waves, cars and girls. Wilson drew on his love of doo-wop and Phil Spectors legendary Wall of Sound to produce increasingly sophisticated records that charted his troubled emotional life through an era of seismic shifts in popular culture. He eventually withdrew from live performance to focus on perfecting his astonishing and ever more baroque studio mastery. By 1965, determined to outdo Lennon and McCartney in setting new standards for pop music, he began work on Pet Sounds, still considered one of the greatest albums ever made. At the height of his powers, Wilsons mooted follow-up, Smile, was to be his ultimate statement, but his demons were about to catch up with him and 40 years would pass before the world heard the recordings. Beach Boys afficionado Steve Garlick will take us on a deep dive into the soundtrack of the California myth and the darkness that lurks beneath it. Tickets at 5 in advance / 6 on the door

Knight and Spiers

Knight and Spiers

9 Nov 2025 - 9 Nov 2025

"An extraordinary collaboration between two musicians at the absolute top of their game. This is an adventure that takes in musical detours you'd be mad to ignore" Tradfolk "A beautiful snapshot of two musicians at the pinnacle of their craft. Listeners will find themselves lost in something magical; anyone will struggle to find something as masterful as this for a long, long time" Bright Young Folk "There can be no doubt that both performers are amongst the most, if not the most, talented of their peers. I was probably not the only person to leave the venue in awe at having witnessed something very special" Fatea Records Magazine Both Peter Knight and John Spiers have made long lasting and significant contributions to the English folk scene via their work with Steeleye Span and Bellowhead respectively, and each in their own way has changed the perception of what traditional music can be, introducing it to much wider audiences. As members of the Gigspanner Big Band, they have expanded those boundaries ever further. 'Folk A-Listers' 'Folk Royalty' 'Folk Icons' are terms frequently applied to them, but what it means in reality is that they bring the best of traditional music to any stage they play. The exquisite explorations of the liminal space that exists between traditional and classical music is what makes the music of Peter Knight and John Spiers so compelling and beguiling, ultimately rendering genres irrelevant. In the words of Tradfolk: As a duo, they have developed into thrilling exponents of traditional tunes and songs, repurposing the material as jumping-off points into the most enchanting exploration. Its largely through touring as a duo that theyve been able to cultivate what has become an extraordinary partnership, giving them the confidence to record their latest studio album, Both in a Tune, chosen as one of the 10 Best New Albums from Around the World by the influential music journal, SONGLINES. The pairing of violin and melodeon is a classic one, but in the hands of Knight and Spiers, improvisation and invention meet the listener at every turn. Together they have created a musical document that resonates with history, but also something to inspire future generations of musicians to engage with Britains folk music heritage. Tickets at 22
