Newport Bowls Club – Sat 24th August
“Mellencamp has created an important body of work that has earned him both critical regard and an enormous audience. His songs document the joys and struggles of ordinary people seeking to make their way, and he has consistently brought the fresh air of common experience to the typically glamour-addled world of popular music.” Anthony DeCurtis Rolling Stone.Â
Join us at Newport Bowls Club next month as we pay tribute to the legendary man we know & love – with a night Mellencamp classics!
