Burlesque Acts Appearing On Thursday 18th October

Agent Lynch - 1960s Burlesque starlet and Bond girl style pin up model, Agent Lynch has infiltrated the scene through a series of top secret performances throughout London. This sexy B-movie style vixen is now working undercover at the SKA Burlesque. She may look sweet and innocent but what has she got in her garter?

Miss Bijou Noir - Miss Bijou Noir is a freshly cut jewel on the Burlesque and cabaret scene. With stunning looks, and amazing production, her performances are not only unique but they are truly extraordinary. Bijou Noir’s repertoire begins with the traditional Burlesque, and ventures into the more elaborate and even twisted side of performance art.

Lydia Morgan – Burlesque, fetish and retro model, Lydia Morgan makes her SKA Burlesque debut this month at the Amersham Arms. You will marvel at her Burlesque and Circus skills. And just hope she doesn’t perform the extreme body-art performance that managed to turn the stomachs of Europe's most hardcore fetish clubs!

Live Bands Appearing On Thursday 18th October

JD & the Longfellows - JD and the Longfellows are a well polished crew who have a fantastic energy that can't help but infect the audience. There’s always a fair bit of jigging going on to their refreshing brand of original material that leaves you convinced you've known these songs for years.
(MySpace.com - JD and the Longfellows - London, UK - Folk Rock / Celtic / Folk - www.myspace.com/jdandthelongfellows)

Buster Shuffle – Classic Two-Tone style SKA comes courtesy of Buster Shuffle. The illegitimate love child of Madness and Bad Manners, these guys will have you stomping, skanking and singing along to their infectious Cockney grooves!
(MySpace.com - The Cascarinos - London, UK - Punk / Ska / Rock - www.myspace.com/thecascarinos)

The Mysterons - A 6 piece SKA fusion band based mainly in the ole New Cross scene in the depths of the dirty South East. With packed out gigs, energetic sets and good tunes the band can shake any crowd into a dancing frenzy.
