Brassberries Coming To Holmfirth

German (but English speaking)Band the Brassberries (www.sue-sheehan.de/html/brassberries.htm) are appearing at Holmfirth Festival. They arrive at Harwich at Harwich 10.10 am Thursday 8th May and are looking for a gig somewhere between there and Holmfirth on the Thursday night.

If anyone can help - please contact mic.hale@t-online.de.

They play lively, authentic low-tech dance music.

Flashy arrangements from traditional as well as self-composed pieces.

The music comes from all over Europe and is made to make you want to dance.

With crazy intro's, wild in betweens, it is music for hopping and bopping at festivities

Nope, we're doing the Late Night Extra on Friday and looking for a way to pay the ferryman by playing anywhere between Harwich, Halifax and Hell on Thursday night.
cheers, Mic

Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman
Until he gets you to the other side.

Sorry! word association brought in this Chris DeBurgh lyric!
