THIS WEEK AT THE STABLES: LIZA PULMAN, BACK TO BASIE, ANT LAW TRIO & MUCH MORE!

Liza Pulman, known for her work with Fascinating Aida, is singing solo this Thursday evening (April 7) with a show at The Stables which sees her go all starry-starry.

Well, she is singing Hollywood,' after all!

This is an opportunity to settle back and have your ears tickled by some of the greatest songs from the Silver Screen, from As Time Goes By, to Moon River.

Enjoy 'the songs of our Saturday night and our Sunday afternoons' as Liza brings her brilliant vocal abilities out to play with Joseph Atkins and the Stardust Orchestra.

Yaw Asiyama's performance of Glorious Jones was booked in for Friday night, but has since been cancelled.

Ezio will play for you on Stage 2 though, bringing rhythmic, Latin-inspired rock to delicate dreamy ballads that are heartbreakingly honest and deeply poetic.

You'll not be able to rock up and enjoy The Counterfeit Stones on Saturday night (April 9) – whether the real deal or the imitator, those rubber lips are too good to ignore, and all tickets are a long time sold out.

Satisfaction not guaranteed on this occasion then, and proof that you can't always get what you want. Unless you act quickly.

Perhaps you'll be temped by Back to Basie on Sunday night (April 10)?

BTB is the only professional Big Band in the country specialising in the music of Count Basie.

It's perfect playability to see out the weekend in retro style, with tunes like the wonderfully titled Splanky, and April in Paris.

Blue Rose Code will be in situ over on Stage 2.

BRC, aka Edinburgh son Ross Wilson, is a songwriter unsullied by the restrictions of trend.

Join him from 8.45pm and the explanation will be in the material.

Coope, Boyes & Simpson get the new week off to an a cappella start with newly written songs and first time recordings of songs from Peace Concerts Passendale, and music from the 'war to end all wars.'

Across the venue, Stage 2 will be under the musical thumb of the Ant Law Trio (top).

Ant was born in Saudi Arabia, and was exposed at a young age to early blues, rock n roll and Arabic music. During his teen years, he gravitated towards the guitar, and when he was given a video of Stevie Ray Vaughan, and soaked up material by Gun n Roses, Steve Vai and Queen, his passion was truly stirred. But there was classical piano training too. He's' a musical sponge, is Ant Law, and his deliveries are suitably sensational.

A previous scholar at Edinburgh University and Boston's Berklee College of Music, he now calls London home, and will be performing with his new trio, comprising Asaf Sirkis, Dave Hamblett and Matt Ridley, for this date.

Ant's second album, Zero Sum World was issued last year.

Last up this week is Wednesday's (April 13) NIGHT show. A so-called 'new school' folk band from Katmandu they dive into the rick Nepali musical culture, breathing new life into lost and endangered traditions, using rare instruments to create a stunning new sonic landscape.

Weaving together stories, memories and melodies on a journey celebrating Nepali village life, NIGHT re-energise traditional instruments and melodies with a decidedly contemporary flair and an excitingly unique sound.'

And it's yours to connect with from 8pm.
