Ben Hopkinson is well known for his work as part of By Toutatis and Kingsley Chapman & The Murder, two bands firmly lodged in the canon of seminal North East groups, so we're really excited to bring him to Base Camp for a special solo show rarer than an angry marmot. A piano maestro, saxophonist, singer, writer, guitar shredder, Alan Hull enthusiast - we don't know what to expect and we absolutely cannot wait.
Support comes from from soulful, eighties-inspired balladeer Lost State Of Dan, another multi-instrumental genius. Will there be a Piano duel? Who's Bach is worse than their bite? Doors 7pm.
Dirty Little Dumplings kitchen takeover from 5pm + Kelly's cocktails.
