Monday Nights @ Zebra Bar Maidstone.

Hi All

I'm Dan, promoter & sound engineer for Mondays @ Zebra Bar, King St, Maidstone.

On Mondays we currently specialise in roots/americana/alternative artists from the world stage - working with Maverick Magazine we are lucky enough to be attracting some very cool artists/bands for those who like something a bit different.

Check us out here

Since our launch in August last year we have had a long list of legendary and just amazing people on our stage, people who have played on records and on stage with the likes of Madonna, Spice Girls, Belinda Carlisle, Johnny Cash, Robbie Williams, Elton John, Bjork ... you get the idea ... World Class players every Monday night in Maidstone! In the next few weeks we have David Knopfler who founded Dire Straits, and some great bands from Sweden, USA, Canada and the UK. If you love live music, sample our gig list on the myspace page, listen to the songs, watch the videos and come to support us - not many counties, let alone towns have a venue doing what we do!

This Monday (4th) we have two bands from California, Stewboss www.myspace.com/stewboss and Dead Rock West www.myspace.com/deadrockwest A mix of rock, power pop, americana and folk. Check them out on the links, they are really worth seeing live, and it would be great to see some new faces. Full details at www.myspace.com/maverick_zebra

Later in 2008 we plan to have gigs on other week nights with other types of music including local bands.

Help us keep real music LIVE!

Think I will come down on Monday 4th if thats ok, there should be 3 -4 of us is that ok

Yeah the more the better!

Stewboss are great, you will not be left wanting.

Next week is an extremely good lineup too (see below) then we have a rare week off before returning on March 3rd. www.myspace.com/maverick_zebra

Monday February 11th 2008 - £9 advance (£11 on door) 7.45 Start

Our First Triple Header!

Winter + Kendel Carson Trio + Kathleen Haskard.

Three world class acts for just £9... we must be mad! Winter are an outstanding four piece from Sweden, delivering a seemless blend of Rock, Pop, and Americana - listen to their songs online using the links below, you’ll be glad you did! 22 year old Canadian fiddle player Kendel Carson enjoyed a UK radio hit in 2007 with her infectious 'I Like Trucks', and has recently toured with Chip Taylor. Completing the line-up is American singer-songwriter Kathleen Haskard with her four-piece band. With comparisons to Patti Smith, Jeff Buckley and K.D Lang being levelled at her, her set promises to be an eclectic sonic feast.

Had a listen to all of them, another good mix Dan, might come down on both Mondays, and see how it goes if thats ok Celebrate my birthday on two nights

Yeah come both nights! I know I would if I wasn't already slave to the sound desk!

Yeah cool, starts about 8pm doesn't it, will try and get my sound guy down, if not we can check out the venue and make future plans

Yeah all of the gigs start at 8pm, though next week we start a little early (7.45) as we have so much to fit in!

Your be as early as me soon Dan, 5 bands in one night I must say take some doing, but we have just about perfected it here

Wanna share your secrets? Once in a while we get an ego to deal with too! Such fun and we generally blacklist anyone who is just rude or really pisses me off. There is a certain female country singer/songwriter of great repute who so far is the only person I won't have back - even if she is a friend of Dolly Parton! hehe

Totally agree..my face doenst show a thing... I am too professional for that, everything happens behind the scenes afterwards

Have a great gig tonight at the Diner. Hope to see you tomorrow - text me how many we will be expecting

Dan

Cheers Dan will text you tomorrow afternoon...got to start loading up soon, if your free come donw you can catch us in action
