Wow, what a great couple of shows at the famous Spiegeltent at this year’s Garden of Unearthly Delights for the Adelaide Fringe Festival.
The only disappointment was that we only did 2 shows, so we’re really sorry to all those people who missed out on tickets, and also to those who came along and were very squashed! Hopefully we’ll be able to do more shows next year.
Thank you to everyone who came, it was such a great 2 nights for us. The venue is so gorgeous it creates an atmosphere all of its own and it was a perfect opportunity for us to reveal our “new look” thanks to the fabulous team at Tempest. We were thrilled that so many of you commented on how much you liked the look which managed to enhance our individual personalities and yet create a uniformity overall. We’ve never felt more glamorous!!!!!!
The most exciting thing for us was to see the response to our new material; it’s always a bit nerve wracking to perform something new for the very first time, so thank you for your wonderful comments! There’ll be some snippets from the show on MySpace, Facebook and YouTube for people who couldn’t come along.
We are also delighted with the continuing development of our relationship with the talented young musicians of the Pembroke “etype” orchestra. They are so professional and really enhanced the show. It was a great experience for them too and they are very lucky to have such a fine conductor, Mr. Tony Paye, who is also a great jazz musician and really understands what was required. So, Watch This Space, as we look for more opportunities to work together in the future.
We’d also like to thank Matthew Carey for his great string arrangements featured on the night.
We’re looking forward to a busy April, with a tour up to the Flinders Ranges via the Barossa (with Vince Jones) and the Port Augusta Jazz and Blues festival. It’s going to be great to head up to the middle of our state again. Then in May we’re excited to do an intimate show with Joe Chindamo from Melbourne. Look out for more information on that one. It’ll be GREAT!
Thanks again for your support
Love
Etype
