COVID-19 regulations have been relaxed but it is still impacting the the live music scene in the UK and it is difficult to see a future where small live music venues will promote and host larger band line ups playing to a full house of ‘not’ socially distanced party people enjoying their live music to the full.
So musicians are learning to be adaptable, for the foreseeable future we expect live music to be more acoustically driven, Soloists, Duo’s and Trio’s are finding a market that still works in 2022 with stripped back formats and acoustically driven sets entertaining, where possible, in the pubs, restaurants, bars and clubs that understand the value and the unique dynamic that live music brings to their venue.
After 18 years playing with SNATCH and The Soul Dependents in a full 4, 5 or 6-piece format, the 3 Northern Monkeys is born for this new era.
Wilko, Robbo and Capt’n Dave have combined to recreate the fun, madness and music of the last 18 years in a slightly more gentile format. One that venues can host with confidence that entertainment is focussed on what audiences can still enjoy.
“Lets’s get back out there and have some fun!”
