Well, decided to do more low key events in Oxford and maybe do some bigger shows in London next year, if we get the right deal on the venues...
The format is going to be less hurried too, more emphasis on a smaller number of performers....

low key events in Oxford

Low key? The Holywell is a prestigious venue with acoustics to die for. Standout gigs I've been to there include the English Acoustic Collective with Maggie Boyle, the Oxford Waits and Alva and a Spiers & Boden fundraiser. Workshops there with Martin Simpson and the Witches of Elswick had the artists loving the venue so much they wanted to take it home with them.

Well worth an hour's zoom on the Oxtube from London . . .

The Holywell is proving to be an absolutely unique space, designed in 1748 for chamber music, this show is going to be really something.
