Frank Ferrer (Guns N’ Roses) with Russell Marsden (Band of Skulls), Brett Smith-Daniels (Walter Trout) and Chris Payn 📍 Cart & Horses 📅 Thursday 12th February 2026Frank Ferrer (Guns N’ Roses) brings an unmissable live collaboration to Cart & Horses on Thursday 12th February 2026, joined by Russell Marsden (Band of Skulls), Brett Smith-Daniels (Walter Trout) and Chris Payn.
Between them, these four musicians represent decades at the sharp end of modern rock, blues and alternative music. Ferrer’s powerhouse drumming has been a defining force behind one of the world’s biggest rock bands, while Marsden’s songwriting and guitar work has earned Band of Skulls international acclaim. Brett Smith-Daniels brings deep blues-rock pedigree from his work with Walter Trout, and Chris Payn adds a dynamic, contemporary edge shaped by years of touring and studio experience.
This special show offers a rare chance to see world-class players in an intimate setting, stripping things back to raw musicianship, chemistry and energy. Expect powerful performances, standout playing and the kind of musical connection that only comes from artists with nothing left to prove and everything to enjoy on stage.
A unique night of elite rock musicianship at one of London’s most historic grassroots venues.
