Slim Chance Play the Music of Ronnie Lane

When Ronnie Lane left the Faces and formed Slim Chance, little did he dream the band would still be touring the country, delighting fans and enjoying playing together in the spirit that he championed so magnificently.
Since the band reformed in 2010 it has been through various incarnations, but is still going strong, showcasing Ronnie’s classic songs and a few originals with great musicianship, humour and energy.
On this gig two original members - Steve Bingham (bass, vocals) and Charlie Hart (accordion, fiddle, vocals), will be joined by Des Horsfall, (guitar and vocals), Frank Mead (saxes, harp, whistle, vocals), Sean Nolan (guitar) and Brendan O’Neill on drums; the band’s set will feature many of Ronnie’s classic and much loved songs: Ooh La La, Debris, How Come, One for the Road, The Poacher.
The rebirth of Slim Chance is a phenomenon in itself. The band features top quality musicianship and has received many great reviews as they ‘convincingly recreate Ronnie's uniquely ruralised, soul-and-groove brand of folk-rock’, ‘with a rough-shod, rollicking sound of their own, the party is already in full swing’.
