About the event

Oli NG, Steve Wigley & Koda | Albert's Shed Telford
Get ready for an unforgettable night of raw talent and heartfelt melodies at Albert's Songwriters Showcase! Join us this Wednesday, October 8th, at Albert's Shed in Southwater, Telford, for an evening dedicated to the art of song. We're thrilled to feature a line-up of incredible solo songwriters who pour their hearts into every note.

Prepare to be captivated by KODA, whose soulful lyrics, often scribbled on envelopes, draw inspiration from folk and indie icons like Joni Mitchell and Regina Spektor. With a nomination for best solo acoustic at the Shropshire Awards, KODA's performances promise an intimate and honest experience.

Then, brace yourself for the powerful alternative sound of Steve Wigley. A veteran of the UK music scene, Steve brings a unique blend of rock, grunge, and metal influences to his acoustic performances, a far cry from his days touring with M.I.A. signed bands like Downward Thing. He's not afraid to challenge his own "biggest fans and toughest critics" – his cats!

Rounding out our showcase is the inspiring Oli Ng. Hailing from Crewe, Oli's honest and uplifting songs have earned him stages across the UK and Europe, sharing billing with notable artists like Tom Robinson and Huey Morgan. With an award-winning EP and a recently released debut album, his powerful storytelling and energetic performances are not to be missed.

This is your chance to discover your new favorite artist in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Entry is completely free, and the music kicks off at 8:30 PM. Come support these amazing solo songwriters and soak in the vibrant local music scene!


Artist biographies and links:

OLI NG
Oli Ng is a Singer-Songwriter from Crewe, England.

His songs which have been said to give a life affirming, honest, and positive take on some of life’s greatest challenges, have taken him across the UK & Europe, sharing stages with a variety of acts such as Tom Robinson, Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly., Steve Ignorant (Crass), Neville Staple of The Specials, Jared Hart, Will Hoge and Huey Morgan (The Fun Lovin’ Criminals).

Born and raised in Crewe, and brought up on his parents love for Springsteen, it was inevitable that Oli Ng would become a songwriter. His journey into the music world didn't start at an early age though, as it was only in the latter years of his School life that he first picked up a Guitar and started his first band.

From there, Oli went on to perform across the UK with Alt-Rock band ‘The Eyres’ before starting his Solo Project. Oli has released a number of EPs, most notably his ‘Into The Dark’ EP which won ‘Best EP’ at the Staffordshire & Cheshire Music Awards in 2017.

Oli’s Debut Album "Everything Is Impossible Until It Happens", was released on April 7th 2023. Oli & His Band embarked on a 20-date UK & European Tour in October/November of 2023, in support of the record.

STEVE WIGLEY
I’m a singer songwriter who grew up in Kidderminster but I’ve lived in the Black Country for the last 10 years. I’ve been in three bands over the years: Freek, Downward Thing and Underdog, we were heavily influenced by full on metal bands like Anthrax, Slayer and Metallica.
In 1998 my band Downward Thing were signed by the record label M.I.A and we toured the UK twice, getting great reviews in Metal Hammer and Kerrang magazines! When Downward Thing split, I formed a new band – Underdog – and we recorded our first EP in L.A before touring the UK.
These days as a solo singer/songwriter I try to write and perform songs that draw on rock influences, plus my much-loved grunge bands of the nineties, to create acoustic music with an alternative sound. My biggest fans and toughest critics are Ted, Polly and Arthur, my three cats, who have to listen to me practicing at home with every spare moment!

KODA
Taking influences from Joni Mitchell, bats for lashes, Regina Spector and other iconic folk and indie artists, Koda has been writing songs from the heart since the age of 14. Quite often writing lyrics on old envelope letters, and often raw to their soul. Koda has also been nominated for best solo acoustic and best acoustic covers at this year’s Shropshire Awards.
