Fire Engine Open Mic Night Bristol

Posted on 5 July 2013 by admin

Great time last night at Fire Engine Open Mic in St Georges. James tried an all synth sound on the Nord Wave with no piano – sounded immense and they loved it.

Rob Davies and his cool dad run the night – this is what he said – “Thanks for a great performance guys, I really enjoyed the songs. It really made the evening. Cheers”

Under The Stars Open Mic Night

Posted on 14 June 2013 by admin

That was fun – went down to an open mic night at Under The Stars – a boat opposite the Watershed. Chris came along but he sat and chilled while Jamie did two electro-covers on the Minimoog. Crockets Theme & Dr Who – went down a storm – I think they’ll have us back. Really nice musicians all hanging out and jamming.
