Inspired by the blues and more!
We are thrilled to be the live band performing at Surrey and South London Rhythm and Blues Club’s second annual “Rhythm and Blues Christmas Party”.
That’s at Soper Hall, Caterham on Friday, 20th December. Door open at 8-m.
This is great, friendly little club with a fabulous atmosphere and a growing reputation for staging superb live music nights.
Details of tickets etc can be found on Ticket Tailor here.
We are thrilled to say that the “Gin & Frolics” evening at Soper Hall, where we had the privilege of providing the live music, raised over £2,000 for St Catherine’s Hospice.
What is more, it was a great evening. We had a real blast playing to a fabulous, friendly and appreciative audience.
Some video from the night can be found here.
