The Ealing Club Community Interest Company has roots firmly based in the electric blues and rock guitar music loved by millions around the world. However, we believe in supporting the Arts across the spectrum and here we have information on work of all the great organisations from Ealing that contribute to Ealing’s Arts and Live Music scenes.
Thanks to the Ealing Broadway BID and Make It Ealing for sponsoring the build of this website and for continuing to support live music in Ealing.
