After their fantastic performance at Katie's back in 2919 we are delighted to welcome back the wonderful BLACK WATER COUNTY.
Smashing their way into the UK folk punk scene, Black Water County bring you stout quaffing, banjo breaking and tin whistle mangling original music, along with trads and shanties that have been given a good kick up the arse and a slap around the face.
Fronted by Tim and Shannon's spirited vocals, the band have kicked the party off at hundreds of festivals including Boomtown Fair, Beautiful Days, WOMAD, Larmer Tree and Camp Bestival and have won a place on Fireball's 'Fuelling the Fire Tour' in 2016 and 2018.
After independently releasing their debut album 'Taking Chances' in 2017 Black Water County have been focused on unrelenting gigging and release a new album in 2020.
'High octane performance style and strong influences from Flogging Molly, The Rumjacks, The Dreadnoughts, The Pogues and the Levellers what is there to not like about Black Water County?' - gigsandbands.com

Katie Fitzgeralds has built a reputation for live music and parties but it's about more than that its also about history and tradition.
Originally a private house the building is over 200 years old and has been a pub since the 1830 Beer Act.
In the 19th century it would have been home to foundry workers and boatmen and would have looked out across to the Stourbridge canal arm where Foster and Rastrick built the Stourbridge Lion the first steam locomotive to run on rails in the USA.
Originally known as the Golden Lion it later became known as the Stourbridge Lion and then in 2000 it
became our home and was renamed in honour of Trina's grandmother Katie Fitzgerald who was born in Cloyne County Cork.
Trina is related to Irelands most famous hurling player Christy Ring, a son of Cloyne and is also cousin of Donal ag Cusack , Irelands first openly gay sportsman.
