Pub Song

The tradition is continued in the United Kingdom by acts such as Chas & Dave and a Tribute to Chas and Dave called Gertcha, many of whose works are in a 'pub song' format.

Originating in saloon bars within pubs during the 1830s, music hall entertainment became increasingly popular with audiences. So much so, that during the 1850s some public houses were demolished, and specialised music hall theatres developed in their place. These t ...
