Our next show is the fab fun trad jazz band from Norfolk…DixieMix. We had a great night with them last year so looking forward to their return visit on Saturday (29th Aug).

The band is a professional six piece excelling with fresh arrangements of many jazz favourites old and new and all with the DixieMix twist. Their enthusiastic approach has helped the band gain national recognition, leading to a tour with Rod Stewart, TV appearances and multiple festival and theatre gigs.

Ange saw this tee shirt and somehow thought of me.

DESPITE POPULAR DEMAND

I’m not for everyone
I’ve failed to fully fit in
Never a best seller
More out of the bargain bin

Definitely for the discerning
The one the others missed
Fashionably unfamous
An alphabet away from the A list

Far from a firm favourite
My prospects could well worsen
Not the Man of the People
More a Man of the Person

Forget flavour of the month
Not the best thing since sliced bread
I’m a bit like Marmite
Better thinly spread

Never in vogue nor on trend
Mass appeal to me’s an insult
And unless I may have misheard
I’ve often been called a cult

Cold shouldered by the crowds
It’s disappointing but it’s true
I’m not everyone’s cup of tea
But I may just be for you
...
here's a list of my autumn gigs

Henry is coming to Boston Spa in November - can’t wait! 😊

ON BEING TOLD ONLY FANS
DOESN’T SELL ONLY FANS

The Body Shop don’t sell bodies
Boots don’t sell boots
Curry’s don’t sell curries
Neither Apple nor Orange sell fruit

Topshop do sell tops
Iceland sells ice
But Virgin is misnamed
I’m sure that’s no surprise
