On Sunday July 15th, we are performing on the Live Club stage at GuilFest. This will not only be our first time at the Guildford event, but it will be our first festival of 2012, so we’re putting everything into making this night excellent.

We are offering a 10% discount on the regular ticket price. For only £45 (regular price £50), you get a Sunday ticket which will grant you full access to the festival, all the events and attractions and, of course, our performance in the evening! We are also offering discounts on all other tickets (e.g., all weekend, camping, Saturday, under 16′s etc) enabling you to enjoy the full GuilFest experience for less.

To buy your ticket(s), please contact us, letting us know how many tickets you want and any additional details.

We are pleased to announce that we have been invited to perform a song acoustically on Surrey’s and Hampshire’s biggest radio station, Eagle FM. This will be part of their ‘Live Sessions’ that seeks to promote and endorse local bands.

Our performance will be broadcast THIS SUNDAY the 26th Feb at 9:30pm. If you are in Surrey or Hampshire, you can tune in to 96.4 FM. If you are outside these counties, go to http://www.964eagle.co.uk/ to listen online!

We are pleased to announce that we have been selected by BBC South radio DJ, Phil Jackson, as a featured band on BBC Introducing. One of our songs from our new record will be played live on air across the South counties to a panel of music industry experts, who will offer critical responses and feedback. The show will then turn to the public, asking listeners to text in or email their thoughts.

With mass-regional coverage and the opportunity to get some really useful feedback, it is a great opportunity for us and we hope that you can help us by endorsing our music live on air. Simply text 81333 (start the message with ‘radio’) or email unsigned@bbc.co.uk to send in your messages of support.

The show kicks off at 7pm THIS SUNDAY 5th FEB on BBC Sussex, BBC Surrey & BBC Radio Solent. Listen in Brighton on 95.3 FM, in Sussex & Surrey 104-104.8 FM, in Solent & Hampshire on 96.1 FM & in Dorset on 103.8 FM. For those of you outside the South region, and indeed, the UK itself, you can listen on-line at the following websites: www.bbc.co.uk/sussex, www.bbc.co.uk/surrey, www.bbc.co.uk/hampshire, www.bbc.co.uk/dorset. Our timeslot on air is 8pm, so don’t miss out!
