                      Overall rating: 4.5 Verified review

                      Outlier are an incredibly talented band, amazing experience watching them play. Their enthusiasm and passion for what they do really shines through in their performances. 10/10 night, the venue was a little cramped and table set up could’ve been better but overall had a great night.

                      Great band to listen to if you like jazz type music with a bit of funk, rock, fusion thrown in. Excellent musicians who produce a great sound for a trio. Always give an enjoyable performance.
                      The Ferret is your typical great UK grass roots music venue - basic with no fancy frills, good selection drinks at bar, friendly welcome, vibrant atmosphere & always a great variety of bands on the up & coming bill.
