Acid Lounge Live – Sunday Jazz-Funk with Roast Dinner

Meet the Band

Fronted by guitarist and composer Dave Mascall, Acid Lounge Live is a powerhouse six-piece band fusing original Acid Lounge tracks with timeless soul and jazz-funk classics.

Dave’s silky, George Benson–inspired guitar lines set the tone for every performance. His passion for soul and jazz began at just 14 and has taken him across the globe. Over the years, Dave has performed and recorded with international legends including Sister Sledge, The Trammps, Jean Carn, The Real Thing, Odyssey, and Junior Walker. His own compositions — including the UK Soul Chart top-10 hit Clap Your Hands — have earned critical acclaim and a loyal following.

Joining Dave on stage:

• Julia Quinn – smooth, soulful lead vocals

• Anita Carmichael – rich, expressive saxophone

• Mike King – deep harmonic textures on keyboards

• Raydn Hunter & Neil Robinson – a seriously groovy rhythm section

• DJ Jonny Layton – keeping the energy flowing between sets

Expect dynamic improvisation, tight horn lines, and infectious rhythms — the perfect Sunday soundtrack.

A Feast for the Senses

While the band sets the mood, our kitchen delivers a roast worth staying for.

• One-course Sunday Roast – £20

• Two-course Sunday Roast – £25

• Three-course Sunday Roast – £30

Choose from perfectly roasted meats or vegetarian options, all served with classic trimmings and seasonal vegetables. Pair it with a local ale, crisp white wine, or one of our signature cocktails.
