February 18th 2026 Waverley Album Listening & Live Music Fundraiser Event for Dorothy House Hospice

About

The Waverley bar in Chippenham hosts a monthly music fundraiser for Dorothy House Hospice. We listen to a classic vinyl album alongside music from less well-known artists, often local musicians.This month on Wednesday February 18th at the usual start time of 8pm we have live music and another brand-new album for you to enjoy at the Album Listening Party fundraiser for Dorothy House Hospice. Local musician and music therapist, Will Lawton, will present the music he has created with Argentinian guitarist and songwriter Ludwig Mack, after a chance meeting during the Covid-19 pandemic lockdown period. The album they made together entitled 'Five Years In The Cotswolds' is not yet formally released on CD or vinyl, however they have kindly provided a high-resolution digital copy for us to listen to alongside their live performance at The Waverley. If you are intrigued enough, you can hear the whole album prior to the release by purchasing a hardback book they have produced about the creation of the record which contains a QR code which gives private access to all 10 album tracks. Copies of the book and other merchandise will be available to buy on the night.

We will partner this music with a vinyl playback of Led Zeppelin's classic third album from 1970 which includes the familiar favourites of the stomping 'Immigrant Song' and the slow blues 'Since I've Been Loving You.'

As usual the event is FREE to attend but any voluntary contributions to aid the work of the Hospice will be gratefully received.
