The Shrinks are “a loose band of Bristol-based musicians who like to make, share and play music together whenever they can manage to snatch a few hours between all those things that get in the way of music – like tax returns and laundry.

The music they create is best described as a strange looking, yet at the same time, strangely familiar car that has been welded together from several other cars. It may be rusty in places and perhaps it doesn’t get out on the road as often as it should, but when it’s firing on all cylinders, the rhythmic throb of all the parts working together makes it a vehicle that can really move and transport you to some pretty unusual places. Enjoy the ride…”

 

ABOUT SOUND INVESTMENT

Raising money for Macmillan Cancer Care with gigs and concerts by local artists and musicians with links to the Bristol and Bath Area.

Sponsored and curated by Phil & Allie Dunnington and supported by the Grain Barge venue.

Join us for another season of ‘Sound Investment’ here at Grain Barge! Following the success of our summer run, we’re back to raise more funds for Macmillan Cancer Care, and support some of Bristol’s best live musicians.

HOW DO I BOOK?

Unlike the previous run of Sound Investment gigs, you do not need to book a table to attend a gig. To guarantee entry, please email a list of the names of people in your party who would like to attend to EVENTS@GRAINBARGE.COM and we will guarantee you entry (before 7:15pm).There are limited tables available in the Hold Bar, so if you would like to reserve one please include the information in your email, otherwise you will be allocated a standing ticket. Please note, if you are on our guest list and you arrive after 7:15pm we cannot guarantee your entry in the case of a sold out event.

HOW MUCH IS ENTRY?

Entry for all Sound Investment gigs is £15 per person, 100% of which will be donated to Macmillan Cancer Care. Please note this entry fee can only be paid in cash upon arrival.

CAN I DINE BEFORE THE GIG?

Guests will no longer be allowed to dine in the Hold Bar before the music starts. Instead, if you would like to reserve a table in the restaurant to dine before the gig starts, please do so by using the ‘Book a Table’ button on the Grain Barge Website (WWW.GRAINBARGE.COM). Please ensure you book a table with adequate time to dine before the gig starts at 7:15pm.

Please note, making a restaurant booking will not automatically add you to the guest list for the evening, and vice versa.

Please email EVENTS@GRAINBARGE.COM if you require any more information on booking a guest list ticket or restaurant table for a Sound Investment gig.
