Rehearsals and secret building works are going well for Aircraft Circus' Shipwreck Circus event at Greenwich Circus Festival in December... so much so we are doing an installation with some small acts for Halloween in Lewisham on the 31st October... I will post more details as they come! We are very excited and well acquainted now with the likes of truss and drop forge swivel couplers...
The Kings Cross Hot Club are playing every Monday in the Seven Dials Club, 42 Earlham Street - with all sorts of intriguing guests and unexpected twists and turns, and a one-armed manager keeping his eyes on our whereabouts. Last Monday I played so hard my clarinet broke before we even started Ochi Chyornye... According to some, this is due to a 'shift in the universe'... Mystical times.
And on the 27th October Black Shabbat will be making one of their rare, enigmatic, foot-stamping-fuelled appearances at 'A Variety Evening' in aid of University College London Hospitals at Rosslyn Hill Chapel, Pilgrims Place, Hampstead, NW3 1NG
Anyway, if you want to hear some balkan-ish klezmer-ish music to brighten your autumn day, don't forget to listen to this! And if you'd like to see a small something, click here to see a video Chris Jones took when a group of us played in Dalston Eastern Curve Garden a couple of weeks ago, we're playing Ederlezi (Serbian folk tune for the feast of Saint George) and A Nakht in Gan Eydn - with Anisa Arslanagic, Tim Sharp, Theo Lais and Ulises Diaz.
More soon!
