Free afternoon of upbeat swampy dirt-box blues from two-piece act White Beat at Billy Bootleggers on Weekday Cross.
White Beat play Billy Bootleggers on Saturday 31 October, a Saturday afternoon session in central Nottingham. They're a two-piece blues duo, and the whole thing is presented by Billy Bootleggers at their Weekday Cross venue.
They describe their sound as upbeat, swampy dirt-box blues, and they talk about combining traditional blues roots with an energetic live show. That dirt-box description gives you a good idea of where they're coming from — it's the raw, unpolished side of the blues rather than anything polished or smooth. Being a duo, it's just the two of them on stage, and the energy they bring is a big part of what they're about. If you're into the rootsy, foot-stomping side of the blues, that's exactly where this sits.

It's an afternoon gig, so it's one you can fit in before your Saturday evening gets going. Doors open at 14:00, and they'll be on stage from 15:00 to 17:00, giving you two full hours of live music in the middle of the day. It's free entry, so you can just turn up and listen without having to book anything in advance. The venue is Billy Bootleggers, 13-15 Weekday Cross, Nottingham NG1 2GB, right in the city centre.
