Regular featured live music at Tonic includes
Tom Wardle
Aged just 23, Tom Wardle is one of the most unmistakeable performers on the live scene today. Possessing a voice that seems to defy his size and a style that references pop's golden years of sharp suits and smash hits, Tom's brand of classic pop has served him well. Tom will be playing an eclectic set of acoustic covers in his own inimitable style at his home-town weekend residency at Tonic. Blasting out songs from The Beatles to The Blow Monkeys, Squeeze to Stereophonics, Tom's set will be sure to keep you entertained late into the night with his take on pop and cult classics.

The Kit Mason Trio
Formed almost by accident as the lovely Kit Mason was looking for a guitar player to showcase her amazing vocal talent around the cool bars of the East Midlands, this versatile trio of Vocals, Guitar and Upright Bass just "gelled" from the very start.
Bringing you the very best in pop, jazz, soul, R&B and blues in their own stripped-back style, the Kit Mason trio are becoming one of the most sought-after acts around town.
Come and spend an evening with us and hear some tunes you know and love, some tunes you don't know (yet) and some quirky covers that are sure to take you by surprise.
