Audiences enjoyed stripped-back versions of classics from the musicians' back catalogues, such as 'Blinded by the Light', 'Feel like Makin' Love', 'The Mighty Quinn' and 'Do Wah Diddy'.

They were supported by pedal steel guitarist Sarah Jory, who played for six years in Van Morrison's band, performing alongside vocalist Sarah Yeo.

The club also hosted husband and wife duo Songs of the Folk, who are from North Carolina and are now based in Maldon, Essex.
