Ten years on from Jake Bugg's award-winning debut album, he is back in his hometown. Despite a decade passing, not much has changed - Jake is still the down to earth performer he always was.
Taking to the intimate venue of Meadow Lane Sports Bar for a warm-up show, he is just slightly more confident with the limelight. Wearing his signature outfit of all black and Nike trainers, he fronts the small stage with the backing of his band.
Jake has barely aged, looking remarkably similar to his 18-year-old self. It is like no time has passed at all. The crowd of 350 is silent in anticipation, we are all ready to welcome back our hometown hero.
