A "Liverpool Acoustic Live" gig on Friday 24th July at the View Two Gallery on Mathew Street is a must for music lovers.
Four great acts will be presented on the night - Alister Said, Molly Jones, James Munro, and The Big I Am. Doors open at 8.00pm and the music starts at 8.30pm.

Molly Jones comes from a family of musicians. Her father is famous folk musician Steve Tilston, her mother is traditional singer Maggie Boyle, and her sister is the well-known folk/indie performer Martha Tilston. With pedigree like that we'll be in for a real treat! myspace.com/1mollyjones
James Munro spent most of his life in Stockport, but is currently living in Liverpool, the city where his family is from. He performs regularly around town and Manchester too. His main influences are Bob Dylan and David Gray.
In 2009, he recorded his first E.P, The Impression On Me. You can find songs from the record on his MySpace profile. myspace.com/jamesmunromusic
The Big I Am are Colin Heaney on cuatro, ebow, and vocals; Peter McPartland on ukelele, bass, and vocals; and Steve O'Toole on piano and organ. They have an acoustic, folk-tinged pop sound that's much harder to categorise than the description suggests.
They've been gigging around the local scene and have been making lots of fans along the way.myspace.com/bigiamrash
The event is being run and hosted by Graham Holland and Stuart Todd. Entrance is £4 on the door, or £3 in advance from www.liverpoolacoustic.co.uk
