Maurice Grumbleweed at The Blues Bar, Harrogate HG1 2TJ

April 2 @ 9:00 pm11:30 pm
Free

Small Café style venue in Harrogate Town Centre, literally a few seconds walk from the world famous Betty’s Tea Room & Café, with a small stage, probably fewer than 30 seats, but with a fantastic intimate atmosphere.

Maurice Grumbleweed was a founder member of the nationally famous and Multi Award winning Comedy Band – The Grumbleweeds, most of whom were from Leeds. They formed in the 1960’s, and following success on the TV Talent Show ‘Opportunity Knocks’  they toured the UK playing to packed houses through the 1970s.

Spotted at Batley Variety Club by Radio Producer Mike Craig, they were commissioned to produce a Radio Programme on Radio 2, and such was it’s popularity that it continued throughout the 1980s and into the 1990s. Maurice left the Band in 1998 and spent some time running a Gallery in North Yorkshire, but the call of Show Business eventually drew him back, and whilst his schedule now is a little less hectic, he’s lost none of his Musical prowess or Comedy timing. He is a firm favourite both at his residency at The Blues Bar in Harrogate, and The Junction in Otley (Sunday early Evening) but also with the Cruise Ship Work which he particularly enjoys.
