About US
The Blues with Bottle Club is a free blues club that has been running since 1994. Set up by blues aficionado, Doug Revell, at his local pub The Anchor in Sevenoaks, Kent, the club featured many top-class blues acts and developed a loyal and appreciative audience.
Since Doug's death in 2005 his widow Sue ('Snakehips'!) has been organising the club and over the years extended the number of venues hosting the club.
Blues nights have now resumed at the Anchor on the second Wednesday of each month from 8 to 10pm
Sue has now moved to Ramsgate, Kent where she has started hosting blues nights at a new venue, The Honeysuckle Inn., where gigs are mostly on the first Thursday of each month from 8 to 10pm
