As we welcome the new year, it’s the perfect time to pause and appreciate our folk-rockin' journey over the last twelve months. With heartfelt gratitude, we want to send our love to all our amazing fans who supported us in 2024. This recap serves as a special thank you to each of you!
Celebrating a Busy Year of Music
In 2024, our band embarked on 20 exciting gigs, performing in towns and venues we had and had not explored before. We played in new places such as Chichester, Horsham, Ford, and also in Worthing. Each gig offered a unique experience that built on our passion for live performances. We feel so at home in our regular venues and are so grateful for their loyalty to us.
Connecting with new audiences in new locations was electrifying. For instance, in South Heighton, over 150 fans danced and sang along, creating an atmosphere that became one of the highlights of our year. Each gig was packed with joy, laughter, and memories that we're really going to treasure.
Summer Lovin’ at Danefold Farm and Beyond
Summer has a special charm, especially at venues like Danefold Farm. The atmosphere was alive with sunshine and music, creating moments filled with folky joy. One of our most unique memories came from entertaining guests at a Care Home Open Day. Witnessing the smiles and joy on residents’ faces confirmed why we believe in the power of music to bring happiness to people of all ages.
Through these interactions, we forged connections that went beyond the music. It's these heartfelt moments that remind us of our mission—to uplift and unite through the joy of live performances.
Memorable Moments: Weddings and Parties
A big shoutout to all the couples who celebrated their love this year! We performed at a magnificent Seaford wedding, where the air was filled with love, laughter, and the magic of new beginnings. We hope playing some of the couple's favourite songs made their special day even more unforgettable, and it was a privilege to be part of such a meaningful moment.
We also had a blast at the energetic SHBS party, where we rolled out the red carpet for our new deputy drummer, Andy. The crowd's excitement was palpable, with people dancing and singing along. Throughout the evening, we had Vikings, bishops, pirates, and generally colourful folks on the dance floor, creating a dynamic atmosphere that showcased the vibrancy of our performance.
Spreading Christmas Cheer
As we approached the end of the year, we embraced the holiday spirit with our bespoke Christmas set. We performed on three joyful occasions, including a spectacular show in our hometown of Worthing. The turnout was really encouraging, with families and friends gathering under twinkling lights to enjoy our festive tunes.
Standing on stage, looking out at a sea of cheerful faces, reminded us of the unique gift of music that unites us all. It’s moments like these that highlight the truly magical bond between performers and audiences.
Looking Ahead to 2025
As we gear up for 2025, we’re thrilled to see our diary filling up with gigs. We can't wait to meet more of you at our performances! Each show presents a fresh chance to connect, dance, and share our love for music.
Remember, it’s not just about the performance; it’s about creating an unforgettable experience together. We want to see as many of you at our upcoming gigs as possible because, honestly, the fun just isn't the same without you.
Our Heartfelt Thanks
To all our fans and supporters, thank you for being an invaluable part of our journey this past year. You have made 2024 unforgettable, and we are immensely grateful for every shared moment. Your enthusiasm, energy, and love for music inspire us daily.
As we step into the new year, let's continue this beautiful journey together. Here’s to more gigs, cherished memories, and the wonderful connections we will nurture. Cheers to a year filled with music, laughter, and unwavering support!
