Hello everyone,

2024 has been a busy and successful year for us, hope it’s been OK for you. The photos above show just some of the highlights of the year for us, and the many and varied places that we get to play at, from huge events like Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival, to iconic venues like The 100 Club.

We’re all doing our best to get by, I guess, especially in this era of Great Weirdness, when things often don’t seem to be how they should be, even though people vary greatly in how they think they should be. Perhaps the old platitudes of making the best of a bad job, counting your blessings, etc, will make a comeback, and maybe they should, as that’s what many of us do. If there are sources of joy, these are to be treasured, and music is surely in that category. In doing our music, we’ve had plenty of joy, and I hope that those of you who’ve been to see us, and listened to what we do, have had that too. Thank you to everyone who’s bought a ticket, bought an album and other merch, come up for a chat, and of course thanks to everyone who’s booked us, run the shows, helped at the shows and played any other part.

On we go next year, and there are already a lot of dates in excellent places. Please do come if you can, and please do spread the word among your friends and anyone who you think might be interested. Hopefully you’ll be glad you did, and it’s perhaps more important than ever now that people turn out and make sure that new and original music can keep going and in fact thrive. If you come to see us, you’ll see something totally unlike anything else out there, something all new (and shiny!).
