ROOTS SESSIONS – THE RAGGEDY MEN SUPPORT TIM MANNING

The Raggedy Men play classic punk rock from 1976-79 – done different. Although an ‘acoustic’ band, they have all of the energy and vitality that gave the scene its style and verve. Don’t expect punk rock as you knew it, but these are songs that people know and love. Songs made famous by The Stranglers, The Clash, Sex Pistols, Ramones, Ian Dury, Tenpole Tudor, The Ruts and many more. Songs that have survived over 40 years – as relevant now as they were in their heyday – delivered with energy, by a band that ‘play ‘em because they love ‘em’. 1, 2, 3, 4…..hey ho, lets go!
Tim Manning (AKA Blind River Scare) is a South Wales based singer/songwriter playing original Americana, Alt-Country, Folk & Roots. He writes heartfelt tales of love, loss and life coupled with proper song-craft that sounds both timeless and contemporary.
