Whiskey Kisses Promotions

We heard of our friend Simon Clulo passing away this weekend. He was such a kind hearted person and a hugely talented artist and songwriter. Today currently he is number 3 in the chart. Please head to the iTunes Store if you have 99p spare and download Devil on my shoulder and get it to it’s rightful place at number 1

Simon we love you so much and will miss you hugely. Feeling extremely grateful to have your music and to still be able to hear your voice ❤️

STATEMENT

I have made the difficult decision to close the doors of Whiskey Kisses Promotions indefinitely.

The gigs, classes, mentoring have all been wonderful and I am honoured to have worked with talented artists and attentive audiences.

This decision simply comes down to time. If you know me I don’t do thing by half and it goes against everything I am to half-heartedly do a job. As I’ve met more artists, more audiences and made a name for myself I find my own career has taken over and I am onto bigger projects which need much of my attention. I started WK to meet likeminded musicians, share music with an audience who love it as much as I do and bring Roots, Americana and Country music to Leeds more often. And WK did exactly that.

I am so proud of how successful WK has been. In all the shows we put on we only ever made one loss (and we still got a radio show out of it and good vibes) This is because of individuals who shared the same music taste showing up every month to support grassroots music. Something I admire greatly.

So this isn’t necessarily goodbye forever, but for now keep heading out to those live shows, keep supporting grassroots music and keep being your wonderful selves.

Thank you and see y’all soon

What's yours is yours...until it's not What's yours is yours...until it's not. What I mean by this is that it's really hard to come up with a totally unique idea that no one has ever thought of or that there is nothing similar to already out there in the world somewhere. And this might seem like a bad thing... But do you let that stop yo...

Whiskey Wednesday - ft. Shannon Hynes, Buffalo Ghost, Georgia Barker and Chris Dover at Northern Guitar Bar Tickets are now available for Whiskey Wednesday - ft. Shannon Hynes, Buffalo Ghost, Georgia Barker and Chris Dover at Northern Guitar Bar, Leeds on Wed 1 Sep 2021 at 7:00PM. Click the link for further information and to secure your tickets now!

Shannon Hynes is an independent, Welsh, songwriter and artist drawing influences from the Country, Americana and Folk genres. Shannon pairs an organic, traditional instrumentation with her deep intricate lyrics, all upheld by the dulcet innocence of her vocal. Receiving comparisons to modern leaders in the genre such as Kacey Musgraves and Clare Bowen, she has also been likened to legendary musical icons such as Dolly Parton and Emmylou Harris.
The unapologetic way in which Shannon conducts herself and her music exemplifies why she has gained such great respect in the UK Country scene and is described as the ‘one to watch in 2021’.
​
Catch Shannon and 3 other great songwriters at Northern Guitars Cafe Bar 1st September. Tickets available here:

Barker Music is a Singer Songwriter from Lancashire's rural town of Clitheroe. At a young age, it was always apparent that Georgia had a unique talent when it came to music and countless performances have confirmed these thoughts.

Come and listen to Georgia in person at Northern Guitars Cafe Bar on 1st September for our Whiskey Wednesday. Advance tickets available now:

We’re so excited to welcome everyone to the first Whiskey Wednesday at Northern Guitar Bar this week.

For everyone’s safety and comfort we request that a few guidelines are followed to make this gig enjoyable for everyone:

- Please do not attend if you are feeling unwell, if possible take a test. Anyone not able to come due to a positive lateral flow test will be refunded (proof will be required)

- Please bring a mask or face covering, the venue is small and if the door sales increase the numbers we may ask that everyone wear one while moving around the venue

- Please do not hug or touch the artists without asking first, some artists may still want to social distance so please check with them individually and respect their boundaries. I’m sure we can all agree gigs need to be comfortable for both audience and performers!

- Please only touch merchandise you are purchasing to stop any potential spread of the virus

And the last request is the most important,

Enjoy your evening!

we are so looking forward to welcoming you into our WK family and if you haven’t got tickets just yet you can still grab them here: https://www.ticketsource.co.uk/whiskey-kisses-promotions/t-vgrvxj
