FRIDAY ENTERTAINMENT
 
  On Friday evenings, Denleys hosts live musical entertainment in the bar.

Our resident artiste is vocalist Nick Welsman, who appears fortnightly with his popular hi-tech-backed repertoire of classic pop and rock. Our regular guests include:

JY Kelly & Slippery Dick: the front men from the El-Cojones Rock and Blues band, this guitar/vocals duo provides an inimitable mix of powerful rock/pop with excruciatingly funny risqué parody.

Alex Harding (aka the Blues Doctor): he really is! A GP at St Leonard's Medical Practice with a second career as blues musician.

Karl Arnold and friends: a brilliantly versatile musician from the band Mad Dog Mcrea, with a repertoire from Irish through Bluegrass and 70s singer-songwriter material to folk-fusion.
