A PAIR of highly-regarded musical acts will be playing free gigs at a Weston venue this weekend.

With Nell And I – a mix of soul and funk with an array of string, brass and wind support – will be performing at Loves Café tomorrow night (Friday).

Formed in 2011, and travelling countrywide from their West Country base in Dartmoor, the group is winning over plenty of fans with its huge catalogue of original music.

Then on Saturday, Bridport singer-songwriter Jack Harrison will be performing at the West Street venue.

Boasting a sound mature beyond his years, the Americana, blues and folk artist will be accompanied by Matt Benjamin on cello and guitarist Aidan Simpson.

Both gigs are free, and doors open at 7pm for a 9pm start.
