JULY 2026

EZIO

Saturday 4th July / 8pm / £20

“Easily one of the UK’s best live bands” The Guardian
Sheffield favourites for many years Ezio and Booga make a welcome return to Greystones.
Formed in the early 1990’s they’ve built a fanatical, cult following through constant touring throughout the UK and Europe. Their dynamic, genre defying music is a mix of acoustic folk, rock, jazz and blues but it’s a sound that’s impossible to describe, it’s a sound that can range from highly rhythmical, intense, Latin feeling rock to delicate dreamy ballads that are deeply poetic and heartbreakingly honest. 
At home in big concert halls or small venues like the Greystones, their live shows are dynamic, exciting and delivered with energy, humour and emotional beauty.
Highly recommended.

PARKER BARROW

Wednesday 22nd July / 8pm / £20

Nashville-based Southern Rock Revivalists Parker Barrow roar back to the UK with their Hold The Mash Tour
“Megan Kane is one of those one in a generation vocalists. She also has amazing energy on stage still able to belt out her vocals whilst bouncing around like a Duracell bunny.” Get Ready To Rock, 5-Stars
“Truckloads of rock ‘n’ roll exuberance, with thrilling rhythms and spectacular Plantish vocals.” Raw Ramp
“a perfect demonstration of what Parker Barrow are about – power, excitement and a classic Southern sound.” Music News, 4/5 Stars
“If you’re looking for high-octane rock driven by genuine power and attitude, you’ve found your fix.” Rock News, 5-Stars
“With so much quality, one is inevitably left wanting more… the momentum is remarkable.” Rock’N Force
Parker Barrow is a high energy, blues-infused southern rock ‘n’ roll band led by husband-and-wife duo Megan Kane (lead vocals) and Dylan Turner (drums). A chance encounter brought Kane and Turner together in 2019, when Turner was searching for a new singer for his band. The pair immediately hit it off, and within two weeks they were on the road together in full time pursuit of a mutual musical dream, they have been riding the highs and lows of rock ’n’ roll road life ever since.
In 2023 Parker Barrow expanded with the full-time inclusion of guitarist and musical director Alex Bender. At the foundation of Parker Barrow’s sound is the heavy-handed groove of Turner’s drumming, with Kane’s soulful and electrifying vocals soaring up over the top. The pair’s dynamics are brilliantly stitched together by Alex’s creative riffs and spirited playing throughout the songs. Parker Barrow’s compelling vintage sound contains elements of rock, southern rock, blues, and soul; but the band’s brand of music is unmistakably and distinctly their own. The band command an impressive mix of old and new influences threaded throughout their distinctive sound.

BCMA Female Vocalist of the Year nominee and 2 x UK Country iTunes No.1 artist, Georgia Nevada, is shaking up the UK’s Southern Rock scene. Known for her powerful vocals and lyrical storytelling, Nevada brings a unique blend of Southern Rock and blues rooted in the familiarity of country music.
