Occasionally we take a show outside the county. One for the diary if you're further afield — or fancy a road trip.
Not every weekend has a Rockin' Roots show: our gigs run on any night of the week, from Wednesday to Sunday. This page lists every upcoming show in date order, so whatever's on next is always at the top, with the date, venue and ticket link.
Book advance tickets online through Gigantic from the Buy Tickets button on each show, usually from £20 plus a booking fee. Door tickets, when any are left, cost more, and many shows sell out.
Our regular venues are The Old Brewery Store in Faversham, The Oast in Rainham and Bromley Blues Club at Bromley Little Theatre. We also put on occasional shows at other Kent venues, such as Margate and Birchington, when the right artist and room come together.
Doors usually open at 7pm in Faversham and Rainham and 6:30pm in Bromley, with music from around 7:30–8pm. Shows typically finish by about 10:30pm. Each show page has the exact times.
Many do, especially in the intimate 90-capacity room at The Oast and the 100-seat Bromley Little Theatre. Booking in advance is cheaper, and the mailing list hears about new shows first.
Blues, rock, soul and roots by touring professional artists from the UK, Europe and North America, from Delta and Chicago blues to blues-rock, soul and classic rock.
We started in Sittingbourne with our very first show in 2015 and have since become a trusted name for live music in Kent — bringing national and international blues and rock acts to intimate rooms in Faversham, Medway and Bromley, and across Thanet in Margate and Birchington.
Whether you're after raw blues-rock, classic rock, soul or roots, you'll find regularly updated listings, trusted venues and easy online booking above.
New dates are added often and live music in Kent nights sell out fast — so if something catches your eye, grab your tickets early.
Artists on this season's bill include Martin Harley, Erja Lyytinen, GA-20, Laurence Jones, Rosalie Cunningham, Handsome Jack, The Commoners, Robert J Hunter, Bywater Call, Nine Below Zero, Connolly Hayes, Marcus Trummer, Danny Bryant and Aynsley Lister, among many others.
