If you want make one new year's resolution you are guaranteed to stick to, why not plan to enjoy more live music?

The Bull’s Head, Barnes, has a packed month of entertainment on offer, meaning you will certainly not be short of choice.

The Mississippi Swamp Dogs perform at the lunchtime swing sessions on January 18, with top swing trombonist Jeff Williams and his five-piece New Orleans flavoured outfit taking centre stage.

The band will perform a mix of cajun funk, soul shuffle, blues and Latin rhythms, with covers including BB King, Bill Withers, the Crusaders and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Days later, Salamander perform an exciting mix of retro 60s and 70s soul, blues and Latin grooves with a dash of Santana and a touch of Georgie Fame.

The band will be joined by young singer Vicki Edwards as they reach out to remind the audience of the good times they never realised they had.
