The Black Market: Still the Best Live Venue, with The Phil Ashmore Band Bringing Country Rock Fire
Once again, The Black Market Venue proved why it’s one of the best live music venues around, delivering another top-tier night of live music and electric atmosphere. This time, it was The Phil Ashmore Band who took the stage, bringing their signature country rock sound to a crowd that was more than ready for a great night.
From the first chord, the band set the tone with rich harmonies, driving rhythms, and a blend of classic rock energy and country soul. Their set was packed with foot-stomping anthems, soaring guitar solos, and melodies that stick with you long after the last note fades. Whether they were delivering heartfelt ballads or full-throttle rockers, the band had the crowd fully engaged—singing along, dancing, and soaking up every moment.
The vibe was exactly what you want from a live gig: a tight band, a buzzing audience, and a venue that knows how to put on a show. The Black Market has long been a cornerstone of the Nottinghamshire music scene, and nights like this prove why it continues to be the go-to spot for quality live music and an unbeatable atmosphere.
A night of great tunes, good fun, and a reminder of just how powerful live music can be. If you weren’t there, you missed out—but something tells us The Phil Ashmore Band will be back, and when they are, you won’t want to miss it.
