About This Event

The Bone Idols will perform an evening of rhythm and blues at Billy Bootleggers in Newcastle on 18 September 2026. Ticket prices start from £2.00.

The Bone Idols - A duo featuring two local "legends" - Alex Fawcett and Ronnie Semple playing a mix of upbeat Rhythm and Blues.

With usually nothing but six strings, a harp, and a hell of a lot of soul, this Blues-Rock duo unleashes a sound that feels way bigger than two people have any right to produce. The guitar riffs come in like rolling thunder—raw, distorted, and dripping with that Mississippi mud—and just when you think it can’t get more intense, the harmonica cuts in again, howling like a freight train barrelling through a midnight storm.

This time they will be joined by drums, and possibly keyboards!!!!

Band on stage from 7.30pm

Open til LATE
