We just can't get enough of this truly amazing band, performing Led Zeppelin's music with such authenticity. The sound, the clothing, the mannerisms, the musicianship....
CODA - a Tribute to Led Zeppelin are Europe's most authentic and exciting Led Zeppelin tribute band, paying homage to the world's most influential and succesful rock band ever! This show features an incredible recreation of Led Zeppelin in their prime, featuring amazing replica costumes and instruments that will take you back in time to the early 70's.
Formed by four musicians with a love of, and dedication to, the music of Led Zeppelin, this is no parody or ego trip, just an honest and true representation of the music of the greatest rock band ever, Led Zeppelin, performed live on stage with no tricks, backing tracks or safety net!
If you like your Led Zeppelin tribute band with big hair, all the stage moves and excitement of the original band, an incredible attention to detail unrivalled by any other Led Zeppelin tribute band, a singer with all the range and power of Robert Plant, a guitarist with all the riffs and groove of Jimmy Page, a drummer with all the feel and power of John Bonham and a multi-instrumental bassist like John Paul Jones, this is the Led Zeppelin tribute band for you!
On the last Friday of each month we host a variety of acts in the bar, each performing for 20 minutes. They can be soloists, duos, trios or small quartets as there's not a lot of space.
It's open to everyone of any musical style but mainly based around those playing acoustic instruments which we plug in using our small PA system.
If you would like to play here simply email us with your details and we'll add you to this or future Slightly Plugged Nights.
The list of who's playing this month will appear below.
King Awesome bring the ultimate 80s stadium rock tribute show to The Flowing Spring, featuring the greatest hits of Bon Jovi, Van Halen, Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Guns N’ Roses, Poison, Whitesnake and all their hard-rockin’ amigos!
These boys will transport you to those late ‘80s nights on L.A.’s Sunset Strip where big riffs and even bigger hair ruled the airwaves; where you rocked all night and party'd all day.
King Awesome fuse huge riffs, anthemic choruses and an incendiary live show full of high kicks, fist pumps and tongue-in-cheek references to all your favourite 80s rock cliches!
King Awesome hold their crowds in the palm of their leather-gloved hands and party like it’s 1989!
They also bring a wall of Marshall stacks, smoke cannons, full-colour backdrop and outrageous guitar changes!
King Awesome is:
Stevie King: lead vocals & additional guitars
C.C. Van Jovi: lead guitar & backing vocals
Johnny Mayhem: bass guitar & backing vocals
Randy Lee Adler: drums & samples
This is a special one-off event: an invitation to bring your classic American car or motorbike, enjoy a drink and a bite to eat and soak up the country/ rockabilly sounds of Hiway51 on stage in the garden.
If you have a classic Cadillac, Chevvy, Pontiac, Dodge, Lincoln, Ford, Harley or other classic make, bring it along! Non-American classic cars and bikes are also welcome.
If you just wish to come along and admire the motors, that's fine too!
The Meet will start at 2pm, with hot food available. Hiway51 will strike up at 3pm, playing two sets. The event will wind down around 5pm.
Special Kinda Madness performs two sets combining the phenomenally energetic stage presence of The Specials with the wonderful iconic tunes of the Madness ‘Nutty Boys’.

Playing a set from each band and producing a show that will have the audience up and dancing from the off, this six-piece band will have everyone hankering after that exciting era of 2-Tone and ska.
In our opinion, the finest Bowie tribute out there, back for their 9th appearance! They're so good!
Moonage are very special. They have the best Bowie frontman with the voice and the natural look of Bowie, backed by top-notch musicians. Everything is as good as it gets.
Performing in theatres across the UK, we are priveleged to have this 7-piece band returning to The Flowing Spring.
