What's on
LIVE AT THE BEDFORD
We are excited to be starting live music back at The Bedford again however due to Covid-19 we have had to make some fundamental changes to the way the evenings run in order to make sure the environment is safe for everyone.
Tonight’s show is FREE entry, but everyone needs to book in advance – there is a ticket link below.
Sadly we have limited capacity and no ability for people to walk in and stand. Everyone is required to have a seat. There will be a full menu and table service throughout the night to look after you all.
For anyone unable to make it in person we will be streaming the show live (our 17th year of live streaming) via our Facebook page – www.facebook.com/thebedfordpub
Doors open at 7pm and we ask everyone to come early enough and stay long enough to enjoy all the performances as we are unable to use a table for other people if you arrive late, leave early or aren’t able to make it. Current guidelines only permit tables of six or two households or bubbles. Thank you for understanding.
This evening we have live music from:

TOOTAWL
A looming presence in every sense, Tootawl’s music is frank, forward and rich with emotion. Christened ‘too tawl’ due to his height whilst gigging in Nashville, the name stuck, and upon his arrival home to Ireland he began working as Tootawl. Since Tennessee, Tootawl has received national radio airplay in Ireland, toured extensively, and also had his song ‘House On The Moon’ played in an episode of the Netflix original series ‘You Me Her’. Playing his own bustling brand of contemporary folk and blues, inspired by the likes of Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Donovan and Loudon Wainwright III, Tootawl fuses his Irish-ness with these titanic influences. Now based in London, he released his debut self-titled LP in June 2020, which was called “an excellent debut” by Hot Press, and Ben Blackwell of Third Man Records called it “wonderfully strong, Dylanesque.” In May 2022, Tootawl released his second LP, a concept album called Roger Fenton’s Wagon, which was recorded at home during the various lockdowns. It is currently selling healthily on beautiful gatefold vinyl. Now, he is writing and recording in preparation for a third album.
