Dream of Space 25 - the space show but not as you know it Jim! We've revisited the footage that was so popular all those years ago and we worked it into a brand new piece. Live Dates: Trades Club, Hebden Bridge March 13th, Sunbird Records Darwen May 14th, Preston Jazz Festival May 30th. Look out for more details on FB.​​
Our Improv sessions have moved house! March 30th will our first session at leading community owned venue the Puzzle Hall in Sowerby Bridge. We love grassroots music and local venues and working with the Puzzle, as we did previously with the Ferret in Preston and the Grayston Unity in Halifax, makes us very happy indeed. All welcome, do come and say hello! :)
​
How does the session work? - It's all about joining in and improvising together. There is a bit of structure in that the players are given a GRID (sheet of paper) that tells them when to play but not what to play. This takes the group improvisations into weird and wonderful territory! All are welcome either to play or just soak in the music.

Self-Isolating Clouds Film now on Youtube.
After three years we felt the time was right to release this material. We offer it as a place to reflect and remember all that was lost in the pandemic. Recorded under government restrictions in the Harris Institute in March 2021, it features one of the last times this longstanding lineup played together.​​
