Well we had a full house last night in the Chetham Arms and the band , in their own words "have set the watermark high". We bounced around, stamped our feet, whistled and whooped our way through a set which took us from bluegrass, to swing, from Billie Holiday to the Godfather. These guys have a tight, disciplined style stunning harmony voices and fantastic musicianship, bundled together with great humour and energy. And this was all whilst still jetlagged! One down, 22 to go



Ps. Phil Brown who runs a folk programme on Radio Lancashire came along. They've done 35 minutes for his show and he has fallen in love and is now trying to work out how to get them onto the festival circuit
