Last weeks gig

Really enjoyed the wedding gig in oldham!  Thought we rocked the joint and our choice of repertoire for the evening proved very sucessful as lots of people where up dancing! TThe gig featured Thabo, in his Michael Jackson style trilby hat, me in my groovy skirt, mark and his double sax trick, aidan and his sexy nord, jack and his epiphany amp and noah and the shiny red drumkit.

Noah stood in on drums for the evening and i thought did a wonderful job!

But we love weddings are would like to play more! Always guarenteed a good, happy crowd!

 

weddings…!

So, what with it being the 1st June today, we are now well and truly into the wedding season. This is particularly relevant for me as it’s going to be my wedding in just under 6 weeks! Good times. And yes, I might well be playing at my own wedding…

Got lots of exciting gigs to look forward to. We’re thinking of new songs to stick in our set too…(and any suggestions are appreciated!)

After being inspired by the DJ at the Oldham gig, I think we’ve decided to get Curtis Mayfield’s Move On Up into our set, mainly because it’s a completely brilliant track! That’s one for our master-vocalist Thabo I think.

Got another Brand New Heavies track on the way too…Last To Know from their album Shelter. This track has what I consider to be the best saxophone solo ever played (on a coolness:time ratio) – you’ve got to check it out! The solo is something like 8-bars long, but…well you’ll see when you listen to it. Hopefully we’ll be able to replicate some of it’s party vibe.
