Live gig by The Paul Rose Band, with guitarist Paul Rose, drummer Paul Burgess of 10cc, Nick Steed on keys and Chris Bevington on bass.
The Paul Rose Band play The Continental on Friday 19 February, with the set running from 20:00 to 23:00. It's a full band night, not just a solo spot, and the line-up puts Paul Rose on guitar, Paul Burgess on drums, Nick Steed on keys and Chris Bevington on bass.
Rose is a Newcastle-born guitarist, composer and producer whose playing pulls from rock, blues, country, funk, jazz and ambient. He's picked up awards along the way, including 'Guitarist of the Year', and has worked with the likes of Ted McKenna, Bill Evans and John Rabbit Bundrick. The band around him brings in some familiar names from the scene: Paul Burgess is from 10cc, Nick Steed is known for Optimystik Visionaries and THR33, and Chris Bevington holds down the bass. With that mix of rock, blues and jazz in the description, it's a broad enough reach to cover a lot of ground over the course of the night.

The Continental is a Preston pub and restaurant that serves British cuisine and real ales, and it does more than just food and drink. It hosts live music gigs, films, and cultural events, and is home to the now-legendary Continental Beer Festival. It sits in a riverside location just out of the town centre, with a garden by the river and the event space The Boatyard. If you're coming from the centre, it's a short trip out to South Meadow Lane, PR1 8JP. The gig runs from 20:00 to 23:00 on Friday 19 February.
