Summer’s here and the time is right for….
If you’ve been paying attention to the gigs list on the site, you’ll see that we are booked in for a couple of street parties over the long Jubilee weekend! (We hope our fellow bands are enjoying the same popularlty...
Learn MoreThe Big Flying V Fest, 2/4/22
That was all rather fun, really. The lead-up was a bit hard work — in these times of COVID, rehearsals can be a little minimal — but it all came right on the day. Phew. 😉 Would love to play at the Half Moon again...

From no gigs yet booked to two already on the calendar within just a couple of days…! The first one written in is this year’s Bacchus Half Marathon and 10k race at Denbies Vineyard on September 11th. Those of you who...
Learn MoreMore gigs for 2022 (well we hope so, anyway)
Yes, maybe a little late, as here we are in February again…! We are actively on the hunt for some more gigs this year. 2021 was at least slightly better than 2020, in the sense that we played any gigs at all, but hopefully...

Learn MoreAt last!
Tonight is our first gig for nearly two years… no pressure there then… Unfortunately for you, it’s at a private party, but we really hope to be out and playing somewhere more public in the not very distant...
Learn MoreI Want You…
More Lockdown Tapes! Maybe the last one, maybe not — we’ll see. This one’s our first try at covering a song we hadn’t previously rehearsed together or played live — we think it came out pretty...
Learn MoreNot-Quite-Live….
Hi all! No, still no live music to report — although we are hopeful of being able to restart rehearsals next month. Can’t come soon enough. In the meantime, Epsom Rotary Club are running a Showcase on Saturday 1st May...
