The Eel Pie Club celebrates its 15th birthday this month with performances from musicians that graced Eel Pie Island’s famous stage in the 1960s.

Featured band Birdwood is an all-star combination of three bands that performed during the island’s hey-day.

Ali Mackenzie of The Birds, which featured Ronnie Wood on guitar, Derek Griffiths of the Artwoods and Keith Grant of The Downliners Sect will all be rolling back the years, along with Mark Freeman, Chris Parren and special guests Don Craine and Terry Marshall.

Opening will be a solo performance by Peter Hammerton of the 1960s band, The Others, who also played on Eel Pie Island and had a hit with the Chuck Berry number, Oh Yeah!
