Professional electronic organist Andrew Nix, from North Yorkshire, entertained the audience at the East Devon Organ Club on Tuesday, February 11, with a delightful combination of popular music and Yorkshire humour.

There were plenty of foot-tapping moments with Andrew's choice of music ranging from the music of the '60s through to music from the shows.

Andrew has been performing concerts for the club since 1995 and has enthralled his audiences with his masterly musical skills on his Roland Atelier 900C electronic organ.

From ballads to Latin, marches to musicals, his light-hearted shows attract a wide range of musical tastes.

Since 1988, the East Devon Organ Club has been presenting live electronic organ concerts at Primley Road Church Hall, Sidmouth.
