It's been Busy and Getting Busier

Its been a very interesting few days....
The PinDrop all dayer was amazing and so many talented musicians it was a cracking time.
It was held at the Fishermans Arms, Southgates, The Headland, Hartlepool. and the Crowd was buzzing. Some pics from the event shown below...

I've been working on the bands business plan and its nearly ready to present, which is just as well as I have a presentation to do for the local Business enterprise agency. Its all very exiting... there will be two people to view the presentation one from Amacus and the other from the Hartlepool Council.. I don't know where its going to lead, but with preparation, confidence and a lot luck it can only lead to good things for now and the future... So watch this space.

We have just taken another 3 bookings...  A wedding for October this year... A Charity Event for Dogs for the the Blind - Seaton Carew 1st Sept... and The Ropery Pub Sunderland, Friday 9th Sept 8-11..

Off the back of it we have now designed new posters, flyers and postcards once finalised please visit the blog again to see the results.




From the 1st of September we will be using the Facebook band business page rather than the profile pages. Sure we'll be keeping it up to date, but its time to move the home of

Live vids of a private informal performance in Durham

Playing out doors is always a real treat and last night was no exception.
We had Mojito's in our hands, the Sun was setting, our friends were singing and the birds were singing along too. Talk a small pleasures, often the swallows and swifts were flying past and the bird song was tremendous. You can really hear it in the videos, its was making me smile so much. What a magical evening.
Hope you enjoy the videos of us ( JustUs KitchyRetro ) playing as much as we enjoyed playing.





Would you like us to play at your Party, Event or Function.

Hayley sisters at Sedgefield

Fantastic night tonight,  the haley sisters are always an inspiration,  and to night has been just the same.  Its fab seeing another female bassist,  we're so few and far between.  They play mainly country and many songs people know so good sing along song.  They deffo had me and Mark bopping in our chairs and singing along.  There quite simular to us in there style but totally different feel to their music.  Like I said inspirational.
