Back by popular demand The Tweed River Jazzmen lead by Peter Roughead will be appearing again at The Ship on Sunday 29 April. Peter and his band first played at The Ship back in July 2006. This very first evening was a such a success with our Holy Island locals and visitors a return booking was made for November 2006 and featured in the Tyne Tees Television series "Diary of An Island". The first episode will be transmitted on Thursday, April 19th at 7.30 pm on ITV. See link for more specific details.
Peter's band play an easy listening "toe tapping" mix of traditional New Orleans jazz. Careful attention is always paid to the evening selected to ensure a good open tide will allow folk to enjoy the pleasure of "Jazz at The Ship" and not be stranded after the event. Please note, the island will open at 1700 hrs and close at 0045 hrs Monday morning, which should leave plenty of time to come and go. For those who fancy an evening meal before the jazz begins, just give us a call on 01289 389311 and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Also if you can't make this date the next jazz night will be on Sunday 1 July.... more details to follow.
About The Ship Inn
- The Ship Inn, Holy Island
- Holy Island, Northumberland, United Kingdom
- The Ship Inn a "Free House" has been under new ownership since September 2005. Janice and Andrew, landlords of The Ship came to Holy Island in the April of 2005 and stayed at The Ship for a holiday. Just like the "Remmington Man" who bought the shaver, Andrew & Janice casually enquired about wishing to own a place like The Ship Inn and to their surprise discovered it was just about to go through a commercial agent. The rest is history, working closely with the previous owners, Pauline & Frank Gregory and their "Front of House" manager, Wendy Middleton a smooth transfer of business was completed by the September of 2005.
