Rock covers band Sarum's Lot plays the Wig and Quill with songs from the 1960s to the present day.
Sarum's Lot are playing the Wig and Quill on Saturday 31 October, from 9pm to 11pm. It's a rock covers night, and they're taking a long view of the songbook, pulling from the 1960s right through to the present day.
If you're wondering what that actually looks like on stage, the range they cover is pretty broad. They've got the heavy stuff from Metallica, Black Sabbath and AC/DC sitting alongside the more melodic side of things from Blur and Arctic Monkeys. Led Zeppelin, Kings of Leon and Lenny Kravett make up the middle ground, so you'll hear a fair bit of ground covered in one set. It's the kind of night where a riff from the seventies can follow a track from the last decade without it feeling like a stretch.
There's a bit of history behind the name, too. The band formed back in 2011 and went by From The Ashes before becoming Sarum's Lot, so they've been playing together for fifteen years now. That's a good stretch for a covers band, and it means they've had plenty of time to build up the repertoire they're drawing from.
