I love the month of June. Its holiday time!! We dont Count days,just gigs and its only 2 gigs before our summer break. Off to sunny climes and about time too. We did have a practice last week, by nipping to England to play some gigs, but it didn't quite match the sunny outlook that we are hoping for.
The trip across the border was more than well received and the high light was playing at the famous NAGS HEAD in High Wycombe.This venue has a long history of great live music,its nice to be able to say we have played on the same stage as Jimmy Hendrix, The Rolling Stones,and the one and only Howlin' Wolf.( One day we will be added to the List)...It was also a bonus to the band this month when we were able to hear that we were to be given air time on American radio. The station WUSB FM played two of our tracks from our new album. the Station covers New York and Long Island. Now thats what we call progress!! Lets hope that they give us the call to do a few live gigs. Right I'm off to pack my bucket and spade see you all soon.

It's a really busy month for the band,gigs popping up all over the place. We are pleased to be playing at venues that are just starting out into live music,it seems that people are at last realising just what a good night out it is, listening to live music,not just Blues. Actually seeing real musicians definitly beats the record deck!!
We are looking forward to our trip across the border at the end of the month, Brad can't decide on the gold or red leather trousers to pack, do we take more than one pair of socks each or do we share? The trials of going on tour!!
keep a look out for us, we are at a venue near you soon.

Well its finished at last. After a hectic time in the recording studio, laying down the tracks, mixing and all the other many parts involved in compiling a cd.. we have the finished article in our sweaty hands. The art work is now in progress and we hope to have a release date in JULY.
We have included three sample tracks from the cd on our music page so check it out.
We have some great gigs coming up in May, we hope to see many of you along the way.

Its been quite some time since we have added an update with fresh news.... Firstly thanks to all of our fans that have sent e-mails and notes asking how we all are.
Its been a strange start to the year for the band with personal issues to deal with and projects that had been arranged, only to be cancelled at the last moment causing much disappointment for us. But as we all know nothing is certain in the music world!
We are now in the throws of recording our second album, which is going well, we are looking for a release date in May... hopefully to coincide with our tour to England.
With the Band now back on track, we hope to see you all soon at one of our gigs, don't believe what you hear, check our dates!.
Thanks again for your support.

With the return of Tom and Brad back to the fold after their winter break, the Band are back on track, doing the thing we love most... playing great music!
The last couple of weeks have seen some great offers come in for the band. Mostly Festival dates, in England, Ireland and Italy (sounds a bit like the six Nations rugby) also great Festivals here in Wales.All are established and international events. Keep an eye on the web site for dates and venues we will keep you all updated as to where we will be and who with.Hopefully we will see you all at these Festivals, they really are great to go along to.We don't expect our Welsh fans to travel to Milan, but then again why not, we can think of worse places to spend a week enjoying great music.
A bit closer to home... we will keep playing locally so that all of you can help keep the Blues Live..... We need you!!

With the Festive Season now well and truely over and those few extra mince pie pounds around our waist, the band are looking forward to yet another great year... making great music. (We have just realised this is our fourth year of being together.....and we are still talking to each other)
January is by choice a quiet month, with only one gig at a new venue in Haverford West "The Rooftops Club".Tom is off to taking in his yearly dose of Ski Sunday and Brad takes off to sunny Spain both are away for two weeks (bliss) leaving the workers behind.
In March we start recording our second CD album, we have been working over the last few months writing new songs and arranging some of the classic. There will be some great stuff to listen to.
we are also looking forward to playing at several festivals this year, not only in Wales but also in Ireland and England.With all our other gigs we hope that we will be at a venue near you so keep an eye on our dates to make sure you don't miss us.
We hope to make a lot of new friends this year and convert you all to our brand of Blues music. We now have a saying for all new comers... We are the best Blues band that you have Never heard!!!!!
Catch us soon....
