On Saturday October 9th, WagonWheel Presents... brings a fine 4 act line up to The Grapes stage. This time out we feature Deer Park, Andrew Oxley, Bex Marshall and Low Duo. Tickets priced at £3 are available from Wegottickets ( http://www.wegottickets.com/event/95227 ) or entry will be £4 on the night. Doors open 8pm with the live music kicking off at 8.20pm.
***DEER PARK***
In July 2009, Irish-born singer, songwriter and guitarist Mark Christopher Grassick went into a makeshift studio in a run-down South London hotel with a cobbled together assortment of musicians and producer Paul Hollingsworth. The result was Deer Park, a record of ten country-tinged songs that has received unanimous critical acclaim. Featuring Randi Russo and members of The Oxygen Ponies, Woodpigeon and Stagecoach, it has received airplay in Europe and the US and was called “Album of the Year” by Diverse Music. In the year that has followed, Deer Park has evolved at a rate of knots. The noisy lo-fi sound of their debut has given way to a more earthy country sound that is no less electrifying. The current line-up features Grassick (vocals, guitar and harmonica), Lizzy O’Connor (vocals, banjo, mandolin and percussion) and Matthew Boulter (lap steel, vocals). In the last year, they’ve toured with bands such as Elliott Brood, Ted Leo & The Pharmacists, and Simone Felice. Tonight Mark will perfrom solo.

***ANDREW OXLEY***
Andrew Oxley makes music he describes as "raw, aggressive, melodic, from the heart". You may also recognise him from the band Crowley's Dead. His solo material explores a more folk/rock sound that has been compared to the acoustic offerings of Pete Townshend and takes influence from the likes of Rory Gallagher and Richard Thompson. Andrew recently released new EP "For Your Tomorrow".
