What a strange time it has been recently hey? I hope that everyone is well and has made it through the horrible events since Coronavirus. I know it’s been very hard for pretty much everybody.
I know that you’ve all, like me, been really missing live music. It’s so great to see it slowly returning – and so I’ve decided that so should this website! Expect a lot more activity here from now on. I’m hoping to add some more features so if you have any ideas, or would like us to post an article that you’ve written, please get it touch!
Until some time very soon, take care.

A group of talented local musicians and singers have joined forces for a Christmas charity single. They’ve recorded a version of The Hollies’ ‘He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother’ to raise money for Unique Kidz & Co., who provide specialist services for disabled children and their families.
Last year they recorded ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ and raised £1,850 for Unique Kidz. This year they hope to raise even more.
Watch the video above, but more importantly support this very worthy cause by purchasing the single. 100% of the cost of the £5 CD goes directly to the charity. You can get your copy from:
