First update of the year and this is incredible! We have been asked by the organisers of the Mathew street festival to perform on what is called the classic albums stage and you don’t have to be a genius to work out which album they want us to perform. Yeah Right! It’s PET SOUNDS. Now some of you will remember Brian Wilson’s band performing his Magnum Opus a few years ago at the Royal Festival hall and many other prestigous venues around the world. As I’m sure you will also recall he had (and still has) a ten piece band to play it “live”. As there are only six of us, this will be our most ambitious and challenging project to date. This performance is provisionally scheduled to commence on the afternoon of Sunday 29th August and we hope to see plenty of Beach Boys fans there. The Mathew street festival is renowned all over the world as the largest festival of it’s kind so it is worth seeing. Over the course of the weekend perhaps more than a million people will visit. For more info please visit www.mathewstreetfestival.org/  Meanwhile if you can’t wait until August there are still tickets available for our show at the Millfield Arts Centre, Edmonton on Thursday 13th May, see details below.

Now where’s my big Gunn board?
