What's On: Peterborough's pubs and clubs - and a homecoming for The Dirty Mojos
The Cross Keys, Oundle Road, has a hometown gig for Peterborough’s Caine Brodie and his London-based band The Dirty Mojos on Saturday.
The former city based boxer formed the band in 2012 with Nick Cornu on lead guitar, Billy Farrington on bass and Phil Clarke on drums, playing all over the capital, in almost every live music venue and multiple festivals including Camden Rocks and, recently, The Music Mile festival, Kilburn High Road.
The band (pictured) have just finished recording a long-awaited follow-up EP ‘Tyburn Swingers’ that will be released soon.
They are an originals, rock and roll band with punky, bluesy outlaw country vibes, and this will be the first time playing in Peterborough.
