May? " Summer time think it was June"

We have a break from gigging now until 2nd June, when we play the Tut'N'Shive , Yeadon, followed by the Tarn Inn, Yeadon. Both of these are great venues and we always have a really good time. Lots of fun and usually a few new friends.

May's been really good fun and has resulted in a few new covers to keep things fresh. We may have even learned to play them properly by the time we play the Yeadon gigs.

Thanks to everyone who has been to see us in recent weeks.

Catch you all in June.

June? Think we should add Dakota to the set for June.

Fantastic Masquerade Party

We had a fantastic night we had at "The Hop Leeds" playing the Masquerade Party in support of the Charity "Mind". It was a well organised and enjoyable event. Thanks to Sarah and Cat for their hard work.

We got another busy weekend coming up, with a double header: Private Party Friday 11th May followed by what is always a geat night for us, a gig at The Three Horseshoes, Headingley on Saturday 12th May.

Yes, there is the small matter of a short (thank God) working week to fit in before the fun can start.

Roll on the Weekend!

Recovering from The Packhorse

We are all very tired this morning after a great gig at the Packhorse and an interesting late Chinese meal afterwards. The Packhorse has a great atmosphere, which made it easy to connect with the crowd.

Well done Danny Smith who ably supported us and brought a good crowd along too.

The Hop up next on Sunday 6th May. See gig listings for details. 

A First for us " The Packhorse"

Saturday's venue is a first for us and promises to be a real cozy gig. The Packhorse pub, off Briggate is reputed to be the oldest pub in Leeds. Lets try and make it the most popular pub in Leeds this Saturday 28th April.

Free entry.

Band with support, on from about 8:30 pm

Roll on the weekend.
