The band had quite a week during the lead up to the latest gig. Drummer, David Sudall, flew back from Norway to be there [No Way!] whilst trumpet player Joe Roughton had his final recital for his degree course at Leeds College of Music. So a hectic build up would give way to a fairly trouble-free night, surely? Well no – when the guys arrived in plenty of time to set up and sound-check they found the back door of the band-van refused to open. With all the kit inside and only one door into the cargo section drastic action was needed. It was however nothing that a lump-hammer and power drill couldn’t cope with…. Eventually!

On a barmy, summery, Saturday night the Keighley Cougars venue was lit up with some of Yorkshire’s best unsigned talent. The band headlined on a night which saw support acts ‘The Capo Amnesty’ and ‘Cotton Club’ impress the audience.

It was perhaps the perfect end to a perfectly beautiful day. Scorching temperatures gave way to soulful tunes as all three acts hit-the-spot for the discerning Keighley crowd. At the end of the night it was clear the crowd was ready for the headliners as they lapped up the band’s distinct and original tracks.

The night was sold out however those who couldn’t make it didn’t miss out. The set was streamed live to faithful fans via Ustream.

The increasingly popular ‘Superman Song’ [fast racking-up Youtube plays] brought the evening to a close and the crowd to their feet.

Next the band journey to the south of the county and bring soul back to Sheffield.
