ACE Centre

The ACE Centre in Nelson, East Lancashire, is a Community Centre with facilities for everyone,
including dance studios, recording facilities, function rooms, meeting rooms, a bistro (opening out on to a courtyard) and a theatre/cinema.

On Saturday, 3rd March 2012, the ACE Centre presented an evening organised by Music Cuisine

The first performcr on stage was Sean Roche.  Described in the 'a la carte menu' detailing the evening's entertainment, Sean is 'Burnley's best kept secret'.  An acoustic guitarist who uses all of his guitar "for melody, percussion and texture".

We were extremely impressed with Sean, whose style is reminiscent of Jon Gomm's much-acclaimed 'guitar-percussion'.   Sean definitely had the "Wow" factor (to quote Stephen Fry's reaction to Jon Gomm on YouTube).
