Rotary Rocks Charity Gig in aid of Young CarersBucks
It’s not often that you get the opportunity to attend the debut live gig of an established and much-loved local band playing their own music – don’t miss out!!
‘Rotary Rocks’ presents……
THE DEAD CHERRY PICKERS MUSIC SOCIETY at the Limelight Theatre, Aylesbury
01 May 2026
Tickets now on sale!!
The Dead Cherry Pickers Music Society was formed in the pandemic lockdown of 2020 as an endeavour to record original songs, self-penned by the members, all of whom hail from the Aylesbury area.
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.
The Dead Cherry Pickers’ members also play in the renowned Dung Beatles.
The band has recorded three albums and additional singles – all available on line, and a new album is coming soon. Their material is diverse, from power-pop to acoustic to funk to prog to jazz. The debut concert will feature predominantly their original material with a few ‘tasteful’ covers. Whether there will be further live appearances remains to be seen!
The Limelight Theatre is an intimate and friendly small music venue within the Queens Park Arts Centre in central Aylesbury. Free parking. This concert is a fully seated event.
DATE: Friday 01 May 2026 8pm Bar opens 7pm
VENUE: Limelight Theatre, Queens Park Arts Centre, Queens Park, Aylesbury, HP21 7RT
