This month hits different.

Back from Brighton, Monty Taft and Drew Goodwin return home with fresh tunes, ahead of our big show the following night with Lib Live supporting Jamie Webster and Dave McCabefrom the Zutons.

Monty and Drew will be sharing some stripped-back sets from their latest projects, The Getaway and Monty and the Ragtails.
A rare chance to catch them in a more intimate setting while they’re back on the island.
Along side them we will be doing what we do best, a handpicked lineup of local songwriters, original songs only, and that fly-on-the-wall atmosphere.
Hosted by David Keenan/Axon Bower

We’re already itching to tap back into the energy from the last one… and from what we’ve been hearing, you lot are too.

The feedback from artists and audience alike has been pretty special, we feel seriously privileged to be building this with you.

It’s a big motivator to keep these nights not just alive, but thriving.

⭐️👀 MEET TONIGHTS ARTISTS 👀⭐️ Scroll for a gander 🪿


Tom is a multi instrumentalist and live loop artist who layers diverse melodies over one-shot sample drum beats. His sound encompasses a euphoric energy, the live performance being a fundamental part of his practice.

Greg and Mart-

“Warm folk persuaded with love, inspired by life”


Kacey featured at our fist show SWS back in 2016 at the Lido and has since gone on to play at venues all over Jersey. After a short break from the many cover gigs she’s back sharing the more personal side of her musical journey.

smith1990

Craig Smith- Born and raised in Jersey, my music pulls from real moments, real people, and real emotions. This year, I’m launching my first annual fan-driven campaign and album, inviting listeners to be a part of the journey from the ground up.



Josh is a multi genre artist influenced by R&B/Soul, Hip/Hop, Rap, and much more. Currently performing as a duo alongside Tom Rolls, the combination of their sounds makes for an electric evening, filled with energy and good vibes.



With a natural draw to raw and thought-provoking singer/songwriters’ such as Jamie T, Jeff Buckley, Nic Mulvey and Ren- David Keenan, A.K.A. Axon Bower’s sound is far from static. His sound flows from indie-rock to funk between melodic intricacies and feel-good grooves sat in hook-heavy tracks.

Over the years, he has built his distinctive sound and forged meaningful connections with his audiences. In addition to his acoustic roots, Isaac has released music with several UK labels within the drum & bass scene.

The perchards wall boys are returning to the stage after a year of reflection, and a few gigs here and there to fill the void… putting down the big electric guitars and calming down the heavy rythum section,let them take you on a journey to the softer side of what makes the band tick. Expect a big slice of 60s folk with a nice dollop of eastern jangle on the side, this will be the first acoustic performance like this from them, so get on down to enjoy the ride!

Isaac Evans/ .music

Isaac now has 17 years of experience performing live across the island. Over the years, he has built his distinctive sound and forged meaningful connections with his audiences. In addition to his acoustic roots, Isaac has released music with several UK labels within the drum & bass scene. Recently, he has returned to a more stripped-back style, focusing on honest songwriting, accompanied only by guitar and vocals.

Axon Bower

With a natural draw to raw and thought-provoking singer/songwriters’ such as Jack White, Jamie T, Jeff Buckley, Nic Mulvey, Mac De Marco and Ren- David Keenan, A.K.A. Axon Bower’s sound is far from static. His sound flows from indie-rock to funk between melodic intricacies and feel-good grooves sat in hook-heavy tracks.
After a few years away touring Australia, Bali and Sri Lanka Axon is excited to record and release new material.

Craig Smith .smith1990

A 35-year-old storyteller at heart, I blend country, indie pop, and acoustic vibes into songs that feel like home. Born and raised in Jersey, my music pulls from real moments, real people, and real emotions. This year, I’m launching my first annual fan-driven campaign and album, inviting listeners to be a part of the journey from the ground up.

Sam Temple is a singer-songwriter from Essex. Through soft acoustic storytelling and haunting melodies, he explores his experiences of love and identity.

Brodie/
Brodie blends personal stories with atmospheric sounds, creating music that’s both intimate and expansive.

Lloyd Downie began playing guitar at the age of ten and is entirely self-taught. Over the years, he has performed in several popular heavy metal bands, gradually evolving his sound toward progressive metal. His music blends powerful metal riffs and rapid-fire guitar solos with atmospheric keyboard melodies, creating a dynamic and distinctive style. His current set list and latest album, Oval, are available on Bandcamp under his full name, Lloyd Downie.

Rich Allo

Rich Allo is a Jersey-born singer-songwriter channeling soaring, melodic choruses and honest lyrics delving into mental health, relationships and personal journeys. His sound is crafted from artists that include Elton John, Keane, The War On Drugs and M83. His most recent single “You” (released November 2025) has been described as “cinematic rock” and compared to artists including Sigur Ros and U2.

John Aitken singer song writer from Glasgow came to Jersey 1970 . My songs are mostly about situations we find through out our lives Im sure if you listen to the words you could possibly find something you can relate to . hope you like the laid back sound .

Martin Jones arrived in Jersey in the autumn of 2025 and has found a home in amongst the musicians at the open mic nights at the Princes Bar. Born within earshot of the railway station where Paul Simon wrote Homeward Bound and a few miles from the childhood homes of Lennon and McCartney, it is not surprising that the 60s influences his songwriting. He has spent the past 20 years living in rural Argyll so there are celtic tinges too. Playing in bands in the 1990s, he has only recently returned to performing live.

22/11/2025

We are incredibly excited to announce this one. Being passionate about songwriting ourselves of course, it only made sense to accept the honor as featured artists for the multicolored Songwriters Society event at The Sundown next Thursday 27th.

These guys are one of the main drivers in Jersey that support songwriting and original music. These guys are well known for putting on open mic style events and this one is going to be real special - there are some seriously talented artists on this lineup that are well established and we can’t wait to be a part of this experience with them all.

Those original Perchard’s Wall songs you either love or hate were written on acoustic and arranged during lockdown, so be cute to bring it back to where it all started.

Expect sounds from across the Earth, come hang out and spin out to your favorite idiots bring it all back to their roots for a one off set.

Here’s the link for tickets and don’t forget you also have to call up The Sundown to book a table - we expect this to be a sell out so wouldn’t leave it too late.

Remember, we don’t just love the tunes, we love you xx
