Also, it's always so well attended, this one actually sold out with nearly a month to go!!

Charity gig - Stanley Halls - South Norwood

2/28/2015

Comments

 
A lovely lady called Sophia Lopes asked me to play a charity gig she was organising in South London. 

I played it tonight, and it was lovely. All her hard work payed off, being an event organiser, when you haven't done it before is extremely stressful, but she was brilliant and handled it with grace.

The Audience were lovely too and it was really nice to meet people after I played, thats my next best favourite thing to do. 

My NEXT GIG will be in Montreux Jazz cafe in Harrods (third floor) on Saturday 28th March 2015 (a late afternoon gig, 1 hour set, 4.30pm-5.30pm, Free in!) 


Maybe see you there! More details on that HERE.

There should be more House Gigs!

I played a couple of impromptu songs at a house gig in York tonight.....

It got me thinking. I wish there were more House Concerts in the UK.

If you don't know what a house gig is, it's a gig that you have in your house. (It can be unplugged or plugged in).You ask your favourite artist, artists to come and play. They say yes! Then you invite your friends along, and they say, wow that's different, yes please! Then they pay a donation each which goes towards the fee for the artist. And wham bam thank you mam, you have a unique night, that is great for artist, audience and you!

I mean, there's only so many dinners, pub outings you can go to, why not do something different that your friends will remember for always?

Maybe consider it? There's many many artists that love house concerts and they are waiting for you to ask them to come to your house. Honestly. :)

Much love, Kal xxxxx
