The Sugarmen have built up a steady reputation, one that a sweaty, sultry night in Liverpool’s The Cavern Club can only further enhance. Presented by Radio Merseyside’s legendary local music champion Dave Monks, The Sugermen gave a blistering account of themselves on what can only be described a scintillating night.

The Dovedale Social was quiet in comparison to previous weeks; however Basement Tapes were in no mood to let this dampen their evening.
The band came out firing on all cylinders with Hotel Room, a stripped down, three chord riot; the type that wouldn’t have been out of place in one of CBGB’s infamous Sunday matinees. Second track, What Happened, offered no let up in the frantic pace.
