Big gig to come in Priory Park this year. July 16 Saturday afternoon

The boys and girls in the band don't know about this one yet, so you've read it here first. We have a lovely, long-standing client in Jill Dennison. A week ago she booked us for her very big event of the year the Rainbow Day, for St. Wilfred's. This will be the third time or more we have done it. She gets lots of people there, and we like that very much indeed. It is just a fun afternoon.
Thanks Jill. CU

Jazz Smugglers octet at Brighton Festival, Monday May 9.

We've had a few classy gigs in our time, such as Priory Park, Chichester, then for Lady Egremont's charity at Petworth House, last year with Sir Patrick Moore in his garden at Selsey, and The Real Ale and Jazz Festival, but this will be one of the biggest. Not sure that Real Ale is all that classy, but 300 people turned up for us. The photograph shows us playing one afternoon at the Grand Hotel in Brighton the top hotel in the City. 

We are booked in to the 200 seater Friends Meeting House in the middle of the prestigious Lanes on Monday May 9th, to virtually open the Brighton Festival this year.

Looking forward to it, get practising boys - and girls.
