Posted by SOURCE Writers

The Saloon Bar band featured in Brighton SOURCE magazine, Brighton's best music,arts,club and listings magazine.

Not one to shy away from a good cause, Billy Bragg’s charitable campaign, Jail Guitar Doors, has inspired one Brighton band to take it to a whole new level. Country band Shauna Parker and the Saloon Bar band hosted a gig in Lewes Prison for its’ inmates. Frontman Brian Powell who teaches guitar at the prison through the scheme says “Learning the guitar gives inmates a challenge, and a sense of self worth which hopefully will feed back into communities in a positive way.”
