Herefordshire and West Sussex-based band Psychedelic Hearts Club will be making a rare city appearance at Bill’s Cafe, All Saints Church, Hereford at 7pm on Saturday June 23, a venue that is just 50 feet from the spot where Simon Tittley busked as a teenager.

The couple met online early in 2011 through the Guardian Soulmates dating website and soon realised they shared a deep love and passion for music. Simon started the band in Brighton in 2015 and after several personnel changes

persuaded Susie to join the band.

Susannah studied piano and flute as a child and her father, producer and entrepreneur Bill Wellings founded the 60’s Hot Hits label. Susie remembers attending sessions as a child where top UK session musicians Big Jim Sullivan,

Jimmy Page and Elton John played on cover versions of top international hits. Simon started playing guitar at the age of 11 and later worked as a songwriter and producer for WEA International in Bangkok, Thailand in the eighties. He was signed to an indie label in the USA during the nineties.

Since then he has been one of the busiest private guitar and bass teachers in the county, based at his recording studio in St Owens Cross near Ross-on-Wye. The duo have appeared at venues and festivals in UK, France and Spain drawing inspiration from The Beatles' Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album, psychedelic bands such as Cream, the blues of Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters and Willie Dixon, early Soul and R&B hits and the reggae of Bob Marley and the Wailers.

Psychedelic Hearts Club will be at Cafe@AllSaints on Saturday at 7.30pm. For tickets, go to billscafes.co.uk/product/event. With supper, £15, music only, £5.
