We had an incredible time last week when amazing and lovely drummer Rick Jupp (ex Elbow) came to our band rehearsal with his gorgeous son Dylan. We had a wonderful time being filmed, chatting together and playing for Rick and Dylan! We are working together on a piece for The One Show that will be released some time in the Summer!
We have several other gigs in the pipeline. The next one is the following weekend, Saturday 12th May at a new festival called Festability in Birchington, Kent. Details to follow!
We’ve recently released our new EP, ‘The Meadow Sunshine’ with four tracks: Positive; Not the Same; My Future Life; Heaven that we launched recently at nour favourite local venue, The Monarch, Camden Town. Recently, at the start of ‘Worldwide Autism Awareness Week 2018, we performed 2 gigs in Liverpool at the ‘Cavern Club’ followed by our first ever acoustic sets at the Hard Day’s Night Hotel and the Beatles Story Museum. We flew to Romania as few days later where we were invited to perform, also as part of WAAW, at the Doors Club in Constanta, Romania. A few days after that, we headed down to perform our 6th gig at Beatles Day Hastings.
