Afternoon Swing
One of the most sought-after acts on the national circuit; Lancashire's answer to Bob Wills, Mellor Brook Community Centre welcomes back these outstanding musicians for what has become the village's annual Christmas show. 1940's American swing tunes and songs containing elements of jazz, country and Western Swing: Orange Blossom Special, Minnie The Moocher, In The Mood, King of the Swingers, Sentimental Journey, Chattanooga Choo Choo and the odd original song written by lead singer Pete Riley - the owner of the closest voice to Bing Crosby you will hear. There will be no support act, the band will play two 60-minute sets.
Tickets are available from Britannia Gallery. Unreserved seating. There will be a licensed bar offering red and white wines by the glass or bottle, a local real ale and a variety of soft drinks. For further details and mail order arrangements, phone Seamus 01254 812131.
