Tommy R Jones, Under The Boardwalk, Sunday

HE'S something of an omnipresent musician is our Tommy - a multi-instrumentalist, right, who plays a range of music from rock to funk to grunge to blues to country to folk.

His solo offerings focus on the piano and acoustic guitar, but you might also know him from playing bass and piano for alternative metal/rock band Machines, bass for blues/rock/country band Street Survivors, piano/guitar and vocals for Dave Woodcock & The Dead Comedians - also on the bill at this monthly Snig Hill Americana night for a solo stint - and piano for Chris Murphy and Boxer Genius, among others.

Hull's Dave Abbott - formally guitarist and song writer in rock band Krave and now producing mellower acoustic sounds - supports his forthcoming Born EP by playing a bill that is completed by West Yorkshire's The Troubadors.
