Reviews of Originals Artists available in Blackpool

5/5 from 582 reviews
Photo of Andy Bellis Andy Bellis "First set tonight is provided by Andy Bellis, solo artist based in the Wirral, I’ve not yet seen him perform; the beauty of these gigs is you really do discover new treasures. Very cool, wearing a trilby and customised denim jacket, with white acoustic guitar, he does fill this stage with his presence and is instantly likeable. A full set, lots of content, very accomplished playing, but it’s the vocal that wows! Such a range, from low, grating tones with a raspiness, to full, loud and real angst ridden sounds; notes are extended and held with brilliance and real ease; very comfortable up there on stage before us. Instant feels are indie then, once Radiohead covers begin, come the more sorrowful and grunge feeling sounds; then during others a slight folk or indie/folk feel. When the full extent of vocal range is used we get tingles down our spines; it’s haunting, atmospheric and you can literally feel the spectrum of emotions conveyed during each song. A gentle at first, then rousing and meaningful, cover of ‘Hallelujah’ is stand out. The crowd reaction after each song is just incredible; safe to say Andy has gone down super well and has certainly earned some new fans tonight, as afterwards he ‘s inundated with members of the audience wanting selfies and autographs. Very, very well received indeed. an absolutely stunning vocal, genuine interaction and a real set to remember. Honestly, check Andy Bellis out ‘cos this vocal is seriously special. Set list 1. El matador 2. Cruel woman 3. Nude 4. Goodbye horses 5. Sulk 6. Ghosts in the mirror 7. Hallelujah 8. Sitting right 9. Creep" Based in Hoylake, England (30 miles from Blackpool) Janet Harding - All Music Magazine Photo of Chloe Jones Chloe Jones "fantastic fantastic fantastic … great communication throughout … punctually and friendly but most importantly tremendous voice great range of songs that got the party going !! thanks for a great evening would definitely recommend" Based in Manchester, England (41 miles from Blackpool) mandy shackleton - hen oarty Photo of Aiden Grimshaw Aiden Grimshaw "Aiden and co helped make our day truly magical. Such talented musicians with beautiful arrangements and unusual covers. Aiden's voice was rich and soulful and the whole process of booking with them was a delight. Thank you so much!" Based in Manchester, England (41 miles from Blackpool) Natasha Martone - Private wedding Photo of Singer-songwriter/ piano/ backing tracks Singer-songwriter/ piano/ backing tracks "Athina has played both in our cafe and on an open mic night. She also regularly played the old piano at the end of cafe session. Her music and performance style is varied from classical brilliance to more modern abstract performance. Listening to her play the piano takes you off into a daydream like state. Whichever type of performance you watch, you can’t stop watching!" Based in Leeds, England (61 miles from Blackpool) 10th March 2026 Nick Harte - Cafe charity Photo of Tim Gambles Tim Gambles "We book Tim every year for our annual end of summer party and we are always impressed with his positive attitude and ability to adapt what he plays as the day goes on- would highly recommend!"
