Rotary Rocks is delighted to present The Dead Cherry Pickers Music Society
It’s not often that you get the opportunity to attend the debut live gig of an established local band playing their own music – don’t miss out!! Here’s why.

Core members include Steve Hillier (guitars, vocals), Martin Kent (keyboards), and Phil Toler (bass, harmonica); Danny Prendergast has contributed guitar parts to some of their recorded output along with drum parts by session players Max Saidi and Matt Manning. For their live debut they’ll be joined by Mike Ashton on drums. Whether there will be further live appearances remains to be seen!
The Dead Cherry Pickers’ members also play in the renowned Dung Beatles rock band.
The band has recorded three albums and additional singles, all available on Spotify and other streaming platforms, and a new album is to be released soon. The material is diverse in style, from power-pop to acoustic to funk to prog to jazz. If you’ve yet to discover their sounds head over to your favourite streaming platform and have a listen. The debut concert will feature predominantly their original material with a few ‘tasteful’ covers.
This is a charity fund raiser seated concert - all proceeds from the event will go to Young CarersBucks at CarersBucks who work with young people aged 5-16 living within Buckinghamshire and have a caring role.

One of Shakespeare's best loved plays brings love, laughter and magic to the Limelight Theatre in a brand-new adaptation as part of the 2026 Buckinghamshire Shakespeare Festival.
Lysander and Hermia are on the run. Having fled the fury of a father and a tyrant who forbid their love, the couple find themselves lost in the woods, their friends Demetrius (Hermia's state-sanctioned suitor) and Helena (Demetrius' spurned admirer) close behind.
They're not the only strangers in the forest, however. A troupe of local actors are preparing for a Royal Command performance and they - like the lost lovers - are about to fall under the spell influence of the true rulers of the ancient woodland...

itself as one of the current leaders in new progressive rock, pop and
jazz fusion.
John’s solo show is a mixture of music and stories
through the years from when he first started touring the world with Uli
Jon Roth’s Electric Sun back in 1985 through to 2023 with Lifesigns.
Over
the years he has worked with: Asia, John Wetton, The Scorpions, Bonnie
Tyler, Paul Rodgers and the Law, Roy Wood, Fish, Electric Sun, Mammoth,
The Strawbs, Greenslade and Lucio Battisti to name but a few, as well as
guesting with Ringo & George, Robert Plant & Jimmy Page and many more.
John
has won both the PROG Magazine Keyboard player of the year for 2021 and
the last Classic Rock Society keyboard player of the year award in 2017.
Lifesigns
also featured heavily in critics' top 10s for their recent album
Altitude and were voted by many as the best band on Cruise to the Edge
in 2022. When you think that other acts included Marillion, the Alan
Parsons Project, Simon Phillips, Transatlantic and the Frank Zappa Band…
that’s quite an honour.
Music will range from John’s solo
career through to the music of Lifesigns.

The Show
After a bizarre encounter with a talking bunny,
Alice finds herself lost in the weird and whimsical world of Wonderland,
where the Queen of Hearts has her eyes on the throne, and a mysterious
figure has brought time itself to a standstill.
It’s up to Alice to put a stop to the evil monarch’s machinations and put time on the right track. But – when mingling with mad people – who can she really trust?
Presented in our magical Unbound Library – where stories really do come
to life – this colourful and comedically chaotic family show has
everything you want from a panto: colourful characters, silly slapstick,
sing-a-long songs, and delightful dances. Created by our award-winning
theatre company Unbound, alongside the talented dancers from SDSD.
The
