Presented
by the ever-reliable Travelling Band and associated musical companions,
this new night is an amalgamation of the best bits from rapturously
received gigs as far a field as Brooklyn and Brazil. Stacked with acts
from around the UK that the band has met on their travels to the best
home-grown Manchester talent, it's a heady mix of the best old-time
tunes and the most innovative nu-folk around.

WITH SPECIAL GUESTS....



ROOK AND THE RAVENS www.myspace.com/rookandtheravens



Rook
and The Ravens’ strong harmony driven sound leaves apparent the fact
they have stayed true to their original convictions and influences of
Neil Young, The Band, Kings of Leon and The Travelling Band. With a
much-needed dose of honesty and flair this young band marries exquisite
musicianship and songwriting that cuts straight to the core.

After
their first gig in April 2007, and a successful 15 date UK tour in
November, dates with The Futureheads, Dan le Sac vs Scroobius Pip and
Yeti followed. Appearances at Glastonbury Festival 2008, Summer Sundae
Weekender, alongside the likes of Mystery Jets and Cold War Kids, and
at Wychwood festival, now appear to have sealed their fate.



SAM HAMMOND (of Ten Bears) www.myspace.com/samhammondmusic



Hailing from Manchester, Ten Bears have been described as one of the hotly tipped groups for 2009.

Ten
Bears have been causing a stir around Manchester music venues. Their
energetic rock ‘n’ roll delivers up pop slices such as ‘Charlie’, ‘To
The Moon’ and ‘Zeus’ - and brings to life the inner mind thinkings of
the Ten Bears; Kris Hudson, Luke Daniel, Dom Kozubik, Tim Estherby and
Sam Hammond.

Their debut single - ‘Dirt On The Radio’ is
released on 19th January 2009, and is also being used as the theme tune
to T4's Orange Act Unsigned. They are currently in the studio working
with Ric Levy (Yeah Yeah Yeah’s/Mystery Jets), and would love to play
for you.

Hi guys,

There's been a bit of confusion on our myspace page and our website about a gig this weekend at The Working Mens Club in Pilton. We're not actually playing there, we're playing at a friends birthday party in the area.

Sorry about the confusion if you were planning on coming, we'll be back playing in Somerset soon!!

Happy New Year from all of us!!!

Hey guys!!

Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to all of you!!

I just wanted to take the time out to say how much we appreciate all of the messages, videos and photos you've sent us since we came back from your beautiful country. We had such an amazing experience and met so many new friends! Thankyou!

We're hopeful to be back in Tbilisi soon!

Sorry if you didn't get one of the CD's at the gig, we only had a few. We hope those of you who did are enjoying them! Remember you can always listen here on myspace and make sure you say hello when you do!!

If you haven't yet - visit our website http://www.thetravellingband.com

There's lots of fun videos to watch and we'll be uploading more and more in the coming weeks! We're hoping to release the album in Georgia at some point, but if you want to download it you can from the website shop in the meantime.

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!!

peace and love,

Jo

Hi folks.

We are pleased to announce shows for the new year. Don't worry if we aren't playing near you yet, as we have plenty more shows to announce very soon.

We'd like to say a big thanks for everyone's support this year, to all of you who have attended our shows this year and have bought our album. We've had some great responses and lots of re-orders. Unfortunately our distributor for the album went bust due to the dreaded credit crunch, so the album isn't as available as it was in certain establishments and at www.thetravellingband.com. We're working on this and will have it sorted soon. For now though may i recommend buying it straight from Piccadilly Records at www.piccadillyrecords.co.uk.

Thanks for a great year to everyone who's been down to the shows and supported us in any way, we've had some amazing times at gigs this year, and thanks to everyone who's put us up and put up with us!.. We'll be back on the road in 2009 and i for one can't wait...!

Hope to see you all soon,

Adam
The Travelling Band
