In October 2023 the world lost the epic talent of Stuart Silcock. Stu was a mainstay of the Worcester music scene throughout the last twenty years, playing lead guitar in the Marrs Bar house band, Black Cat Bone, Will Dance For Chocolate, The Disciples, Chevy Chase Stole My Wife and more. He gained friends and impressed musicians wherever he played with his expressive playing and reserved, dry humour. The sunburst Gibson Les Paul and white Fender Strat were Stu?s hallmark guitars, and he effortlessly conjured restrained, bluesy riffs that sounded distinctively unique.
Organised by friends and loved ones of Stu, Silstock aims to raise money for a cause Stu would have appreciated, to put his name to something positive for the future.
The Stuart Silcock Young Musicians Award, in conjunction with Severn Arts, will provide music tuition to children who may not otherwise get the opportunity to progress their talents. Qualifying students will be awarded a term, or five years, of musical tuition. Every penny raised from Silstock tickets, as well as through the collection boxes, will go towards this great cause.
The event will bring together local talents and friends of Stu, including Ruben Sebright, Pete Adams, Gecco, Severn Collective, Marc Hammond. The Marrs Bar House band, in which Stu started his musical journey in Worcester, will round out the night with a celebration playing some of Stu?s favourites and songs.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Worcesters premier live music venue.
Situated in the city centre of historic Worcester, this former dance studio still has the original sprung dance floors put in place back in 1958. After an extensive 14 month renovation/conversion we have ended up with a venue that musicians have designed with the musician in mind, so bands really enjoy themselves when they play here - and as a result, always give a better performance. We have a 5k in house sound system, in house lighting rig and in house sound engineers.
The executive balcony is available for Hen nights, Stag parties, Corporate Entertaining and album launches.
Tickets for all shows can be bought either by phone +44 (0)1905 613336, by calling into Marrs Bar or online.
