History The Tibbs originally took off in 2012 - fronted by the amazing Elsa Bekman – covering a lesser-trodden path, combining special soul classics with rare beat instrumentals. Their increasing popularity quickly led to a natural desire to expand their repertoire, beyond the confines of others’ inspirational endeavours towards their own soulful creations. Produced by Paul Willemsen (Beans & Fatback, Lefties Soul Connection, Michelle David & The True-tones), the resulting EP Cleaned Out debuted in 2014 . Later that year, the German funk and soul label TrampRecords released their debut single – Footprints In The Sand /Cleaned Out – delivering deserved international airplay for The Tibbs. Two years later, famous Italian label Record Kicks released The Tibbs’ first LP, Takin’ Over. The first single from the album, Next Time/ The Story Goes – again produced by Paul Willemsen – received critical acclaim on radio stations throughout England, Italy, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Canada and Australia. Though the talent was obvious much earlier, the release of Takin' Over delivered the band far richer rewards. Playing sold-out venues in both Milan and Frankfurt, The Tibbs’ profile rose further still with wonderful festival performances in Germany and Hungary, followed by a successful sold-out tour of Spain. Throughout this period, more new music was being created; the Lies 45 released in December 2017 , and six months later, This Strange Effect was included on the celebratory Record Kicks 15th compilation album. After some deliberation, in late 2018 Elsa decided to follow her heart and focus on a solo career. The Tibbs duly began their search for a truly worthy successor, bringing astonishing vocalist Roxanne Hartog and the band together for the first time. With a selection of incredible new tunes and an album ( Another Shot Fired ) drawing fantastic reviews, The Tibbs played sold-out shows in The Netherlands, Italy, Germany and Spain. In January 2024 their latest album Keep It to Yourself came out, a true tour deforce that left listeners awe-inspired, foot-tapping and heart-soaring. On this 12-track album The Tibbs once again prove that the passionate sounds of the past can have a fresh and vibrant place in the music of today. Whether you're a devoted soul aficionado or new to the genre, just get ready for a musical journey that will revive your spirit! ‍ The Tibbs are: Roxanne Hartog - vocals Henk Kemkes - guitar Anton Titsing - Hammond / keys Michael Willemsen - bass Bas de Vries - drums Berd Ruttenberg - baritone sax Frank Stolwijk - tenor sax Siebe Posthuma de Boer - trumpet Information Source: eventbrite

Improv is the art of spontaneously performing comedy and theatre without a script. Works in Progress was conceived as an antidote to writer’s block, a space in which anyone can have fun making up characters, scenes and stories in an encouraging environment. This session runs in the Wolfson Lecture Theatre at the Seamus Heaney Centre from 4-6pm. It will be a mixture of classic short form games (think Whose Line Is It Anyway) and long form montage performances. No performance experience is required, and there is no pressure to perform; you are welcome just to watch. Information Source: School of Arts, English and Languages | eventbrite

Once upon a time, Irish monks, or some would say Saint Patrick himself, invented an elixir which was held in such reverence that it merited the name ‘usice beatha’ – nothing less than the water of life. The truth, while a lot less fanciful, is a lot more interesting. For a start, we know that the Irish didn’t invent whiskey – neither did the Scots, but the Irish perfected it! Join us on the first Wednesday of every month, where you'll get to taste four whiskeys and hear the story of the guest distillery’s colourful history. Hosted in our rooftop venue Angel And Two Bibles, each month we will have a special guest from some of the island's best known and some not so well distilleries. £20 per ticket | Includes 4 whiskeys and nibbles after event Information Source: The Deer's Head | eventbrite
