Event information

Legendary Nashville guitarist Warner E. Hodges (Jason & The Scorchers, The Bluefields and Dan Baird and Homemade Sin) returns to The Greystones with a new band featuring Mikael Fassberg (ex Bonafide) on guitar.

Last year Warner tore the place up with his band playing Scorchers classics and songs from his solo outings, including his blistering new album Gunslinger. Everyone in the room was blown away by the sheer exuberance and power of Warner's performance.

Warner E Hodges is a real legend in every sense of the word. Get your tickets now before they're gone. This will be an amazing night of sweaty, face-bending, head-rattling, ass-kicking rock 'n' roll.

Support is from Sheffield's finest... Roaming Son and The Fargo Railroad Co. This is a fantastic line-up by anyone's measure!

"Jason & The Scorchers are musical pioneers... generation after generation have fallen under this sing-songy definition of success in one way or another. But Jason and the Scorchers embodied all three prongs of the hypothesis. They were punk. They were country. They were rock... most of all, they were originals." - Americana Music Association

"there is absolutely no question that Hodges plays dirty, loud guitar better than many of his better-known contemporaries. With his heart so obviously in loud rock and roll and with blazing performances under his wing... to see Warner E. Hodges on stage is to see him at his best." - Penny Black Music

"...one of rock n roll's top 5 most thrilling moments, the mean-spirited relentlessness of 'White Lies'... this song, some 20 odd years later still has the ability to simultaneously make love to and bugger the listener senseless. With the ferocious guitar work of Warner E. Hodges battling for supremacy next to Jason's howling vocal performances there are few finer examples in the annals of recorded music of how the electricity of personality makes for such thrilling sonic adventure." - Ginger Wildheart

Tickets are also available from the venue daily.
