Me and Bobby Live - 17th October

Free acoustic show - 43 South Molton Street - Monday 17th October

Back in September 2001, when we released our debut single, we played a launch party in a tiny basement bar in Fitzrovia. All was going well until half-way through the 3rd song of the set, when a sudden power-cut deprived the venue of its sound-system, lights and beer pumps… Undeterred, we finished the song un-amplified, to huge cheers, and the evening quickly became the most memorable gig we've played – everyone stayed, candles and bicycle lamps were lit, a warm glow and hushed atmosphere descended on the room and the crowd enjoyed an evening of delicate acoustic music in its most natural and un-spoiled form.

On Monday 17th October, we will be resurrecting the magical ambience and spirit of that night, in the gorgeous setting of exclusive private members club, 43 South Molton Street. We will play a long set, in a totally acoustic, candle-lit setting, allowing you to hear every nuance of every instrument with the kind of detail that modern gig-going can never allow.

This is a rare opportunity to hear our music as it is meant to be heard, in the most relaxed setting possible… and this time, the beer won’t run out.

43 South Molton Street, London W1K 5RS (just round the corner from Bond Street tube)
Doors: 8pm
