The biggest news we’ve got is that we’re doing a gig in the capital on SATURDAY 5th May!! Its kind of a big deal – we’re being put on by FeedMe Music – who are an agency…so that means – if this gig goes well – then we should get even more gigs out of it!! But…we need a good crowd…

So what’s the deal? How do I get tickets? How much is it? It’s a bit expensive to go all the way to London for a gig!…

Well – we’ve got a coach going down – and we have a couple of spare seats remaining! £10 gets you your ticket into the venue (£7), a free HARD-copy of our latest EP – AND your seat on the coach (in both directions)!! How good is that?!
If you’re already in London – well, your ticket will still be the £7 – but we’ll also be throwing in the free hardcopy of the EP too!

So come drag your friends along – I’m sure you will be in for a very entertaining night!

But what else have we been doing?

Last weekend we gigged at the Old White Horse Inn, Bingley – to a very home crowd. And it was awesome! Seemed to go down a treat – and I’d like to just thank all of you who came down to make it such a good night!

We finally have our CDs of the EP to hand – and we’re passing those out ABSOLUTELY FREE (£0.00) at all of our next few gigs – so come down and get your copy!

Also, I had a fairly important ‘solo’ gig down at Keighley Cougars the other week – pre-match and post-match entertainment in the director’s suite. Unfortunately the whole band couldn’t make it – so I just played acoustic guitar – but nevertheless, it seemed to go down well, handing out over 60 CDs of the EP!

So…that’s about all of the latest news summarised…we’ve just rolled out of a rehearsal, ahead of next week’s gig – and the band are sounding super-tight! Last rehearsal will be on Friday – as a last blast through the set before we travel….CANNOT WAIT!

Get in touch if you’re interested in tickets for the London gig – and we will hope to see many of you there!

In the meantime,

Adios,

The post 100 Club – London appeared first on Tom Gee Band.

What I love about the Tom Gee Band is that we’re not interested in making a quick pound or two, being minor celebrities for a week and never heard of again. We want to create good quality music that makes you feel glorious. There’s a sense of longevity in that sentiment that no amount of fortune or celebrity can get you.

Last Friday saw the revamped Tom Gee Band in action at the Library, Leeds as part of the 360 Club night.  The feedback that we have received from it, from both the audience and other bands, has made all our hard work over the last few months completely worth it.  This was and still is a huge relief as the whole show was filmed as part of the BBC Introducing programme (which will be broadcast in a few weeks- we’ll let you know). From a personal standpoint, the one thing that has been evident right from the beginning of this new band is the incredible sense of energy that we all convey when we get together and play. Listening back to the recordings of last Friday’s gig that same energy, excitement and enthusiasm is still there. It feels great to be part of such a wonderful project with such a varied bunch of brilliant and creative young musicians.

The next gig we have is at the infamous Adelphi club in the sunny climates of Hull on the 16^th of February. If you’re about and want to listen to some good music, or want to try and prove me wrong (you won’t), then definitely come down for listen. Sounds good to me.
