Sheelanagig bring foot-stomping Balkan gypsy jazz to Chapel Arts Centre, Bath, on Saturday, April 6.

Sheelanagig deliver intricate, rhythmically complex arrangements of original and traditional works in a Balkan style.

Formed in early 2005 the band had an instant chemistry, gained a considerable following and quickly earned a reputation for their exhilarating and intense live performances.

This group of incredible young players force you to dance your socks off and have a great time.

The group have played just about every imaginable venue on their hectic touring schedule; clubs, pubs, art centres, small theatres, European street festivals as well as tearing up the UK festival scene with profile slots at Glastonbury, Green Man and Beautiful Days.

Sheelanagig's live shows have grown to incorporate aspects of street theatre, elements of storytelling and even acrobatics.

In short, expect mayhem, a lot of laughs and some great music.

Tickets cost £12.

Experience the missing link between the Goons and the Pythons when sixties music legends play Bath's Chapel Arts as part of the city's Comedy Festival.

The founder members of the truly legendary Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band promise a surreal evening of music and mirth, with their psychedelic take on music hall, rock n roll and jazz.

This is panto for adults, with robots, unsuitable medical technology and ancient theatrical props.

Formed in a distant 60s art school by great British eccentric Vivien Stanshall, The Bonzos provided the missing link between the Goons and the Pythons with such classics as Urban Spaceman, Jollity Farm, Hunting Tigers Out In India, Monster Mash and Can Blue Men Sing The Whites?

Stephen Fry and Adrian Edmondson proclaim the Bonzos as "our heroes!" and Eddie Izzard and Bill Bailey acknowledge them as a formative influence.
