Route 259

Barnaby's Lounge

If your ideal Sunday evening involves great food, good company and music with real grit, soul and groove, then Route 259 are the perfect way to round off the weekend. Named after the famous coastal road that runs through Sussex, Route 259 serve up a powerful blend of Blues, Classic Rock and Funk , drawing inspiration from some of the greatest artists and bands of the last five decades. Their sound combines the raw energy of blues-rock, the swagger of classic rock favourites and the irresistible rhythms of funk, creating a set that is both familiar and exciting. The band describe their music as a “rich, slow-cooked blend of Blues and Rock, topped with a punchy twist of Funk” , and that's exactly what audiences can expect. From driving guitar riffs and soulful vocals to infectious grooves that get feet tapping, Route 259 deliver every song with passion, authenticity and a love for live performance. Whether they're reimagining classic favourites or putting their own stamp on well-loved songs, Route 259 create an atmosphere that feels relaxed, energetic and full of personality. Their performances are less about perfection and more about connection, bringing audiences together through timeless music played from the heart. Pair that with one of Powell's Kitchen's renowned Sunday Roasts, a glass of wine or one of our signature cocktails, and you have all the ingredients for a memorable Sunday at Barnaby's Lounge.
