Hear live sets from Thom Morecroft, 20lb Sounds, P’Chenga and The Corinthians. I have to give a big thanks to Andrew Bates our recording engineer, Jon Hall our live engineer, Neil Morrin for his excellent video work and Adrian McEwen for the audience bot, Bubblino and keeping us in touch with the chat room. The evening kicked off with the fabulous Thom Morecroft, accompanied by Elle on vocals and Chris on percussion. I apologise for not knowing their surnames and will endeavour to find out more.
