Rock and blues rock duo The Nimmo Brothers are heading to Cockermouth.

Alan and Stevie Nimmo will perform at the Kirkgate Centre on September 27 as they prepare to take a break from performing together.

Their style ranges from the seventies blues rock sounds of Free and Thin Lizzy to more modern hard rocking of Nickelback and Thunder.

The show starts at 4pm and will feature original material and a couple of handpicked covers.

In an event organised by Cockermouth Blues, the brothers will be supported by West Cumbrian band South Quay.

It will be followed on October 18 by a performance by rising-star guitarist Ryan McGarvey, who has played in the town twice before.

The American musician will be supported by Cockermouth band Crow Dog.

Tickets are available online at toptablepromotions.co.uk and from the Kirkgate Centre and Billy Bowman Music on Lowther Went.
