New Bee needed!

As some of you may know, Josie is expecting a baby in August. We're looking for someone to dep for her over the next six to twelve months, for the gigs she can't do. We're not necessarily looking for a cellist, but you should play a mid-low range instrument - accordion, for example, but try us. If you play more than one instrument, so much the better.

So: if you get what we do; can play with sensitivity and groove; can commit to rehearsing regularly; are prepared to travel to gigs (some of them even paid!); and ideally live near Oxford, then we'd love to hear from you.

Get in touch and send us an mp3 or a link to where we can hear you play.

Look forward to hearing from you,

If you're passing or want to know more about this wonderful instrument, then do pop in.

May Morning 2009

As is now traditional, we were out with the Whirly Band, a scratch band of all-comers, playing on the streets of Oxford at 6am to celebrate the coming of spring. In case you missed it, see Bill's video here:
