Shoreham Society members were treated to a barbecue by the lake when visiting Zywiec last month.

Now, The Duke of Wellington has flown the trio over especially to play at RiverFest, starting tonight at the opening of the Brighton Road pub’s beer festival.

Adrian Towler, editor of the society’s newsletter, The Journal, said: “The trio, billed as Poki Co, features double bass, piano accordion and an amazing girl violinist, who must be heard to be believed.”

Zywiec has a huge brewery and its draught lager are always popular at the Shoreham pub.

The Ales of the Riverbank beer festival features dozens of real ales from all over Britain.
