EVERY WEDNESDAY!
Wednesdays are a popular and exciting night down at 'The Brickies'. It can be a real mixed bag, and no two Wednesdays are ever the same. With a whole stage as a blank canvas we often find ourselves on a journey through all genres, bands, soloists, duos and even acapella vocalists.
If you can play guitar, Ukelele, piano or anything else that isn't electric then get yourself along to our Acousitc night. You don't need to bring anything apart from yourselves. We provide everything you need. All you have to do it turn up!
Anybody and everybody are welcome to come and join in. Even if you don't play and just want to sing a song, there is usually someone here who can play for you. Come and have a go !!!!
New! New! New!
GET YOURSELF RECORDED FREE!
New! New! New!
We know how expensive it can be to get your songs down on CD. But we can help with that! We will now be recording every Wednesday Open Mic Session. The results, with your permission will be used in our online podcasts and will also be available FREE for you to use as you wish (3 x MP3 songs). Obviously you can opt out of being recorded if you wish, we will just press the Stop button for your slot. However, it's a great way to try out new tracks and get a free demo, you'd be crazy to say NO!

NATIONAL CHAMPIONS!
'THE BRICKMAKERS' were nominated and won the regional awards for 'BEST LIVE MUSIC PUB IN EAST ANGLIA' back in July. We were then invited to head to
London Hilton, Park lane for the finals. We donned our ball gowns
put our faces on and headed off to this very prestigious hotel for 'The
Great British Pub Awards' ceremony. We were wined and dined in
style and then the awards announcements began. Comedian and
impersonator 'Rory Bremner' began presenting the awards to the
national winners. When our Category came up, we weren't really
expecting anything. To be honest, we were so very chuffed to have
scooped the regional award, I mean East Anglia is a big area to excel
within,When Rory announced 'And the winner is..... The Brickmakers'
we sat in stunned silence for what seemed like forever. Then all of a
sudden we all started cheering. We went up to the stage and recieved
our award and this little music venue from Norwich was crowned 'Best
Live Music Pub ofthe Year' by industry giants 'The Publican's Morning
Advertiser'. The National award pays tribute to all the bands,
customers and staff that work hard together to make
'The Brickies' a great place to be! Thank you all so much xxxx
