The Hothouse Flowers are a jam band with their own homemade jam spread into all corners of the bread!  Despite the band’s lengthy career, which is now heading into its forth decade, there is a sense of unfinished business.  There are still songs to be written and emotions to share, whether it’s in a tiny club, an arena or in a festival field, there is a sense that the best is yet to come.  See them perform live this Saturday 24th February at the Alley Theatre Strabane.
