Chess Club Xmas Party, London - Thurs Dec 22

We’ve been invited by the lovely people of Chess Club to play a little stripped-back mini-set at their Xmas Party at Old Queen’s Head in London.  If any of you are about come over and join the party - it’s FREE ENTRY! Doors at 19:30.

Tour so far

Bloody lovely start to our tour at Sacred Trinity Manchester. Beautiful set by Rae Morris supporting.

We then rushed like mad men to Holyhead to get the 3am boat over to Dublin, then drove to Belfast…

Luckily everyone was so lovely at The Stiff Kitten in Belfast that we didn’t even feel the tiredness. Thanks to the 1930s for a great support slot and to the great crowd!

We had the pleasure of being joined by our good pal Christof Van Der Ven in Dublin at Academy 2. Also the wonderful I Draw Slow supported who were brilliant. Again an amazing crowd.

It’s been a pleasure hearing Paul
Thomas Saunders and his very talented band play every night. They make some wonderful sounds together.

Get down early to Birmingham Glee Club tonight to catch their set!
