SUMMARY:Music: Never The Bride
DESCRIPTION:At the heart of Never The Bride are two trailblazing women: powerhouse vocalist Nikki Lamborn — hailed by Roger Daltrey as “the best female rock voice since Janis Joplin” — and Catherine “Been” Feeney\, the band’s primary composer\, keyboardist\, and occasional guitarist. Together\, they craft music with grit\, grace\, and passion\, supported by a world-class lineup of musicians. \nTheir career reads like a rock and roll hall of fame — sharing stages with legends such as The Who\, Robert Plant\, Elton John\, Paul Rodgers\, Eric Clapton\, and Beth Hart. Their unforgettable rendition of Going to California on Encomium: A Tribute to Led Zeppelin earned them a gold disc\, further cementing their place in music history. \nBBC’s Bob Harris\, a long-time supporter\, introduced their live album Long Live Live with these words: “I was absolutely struck by their brilliant musicianship\, their passion\, their commitment — they really\, mean it. They are one of the best live bands in Britain today. \nListen here

SUMMARY:Music: Julie July Band Acoustic
