Month of May

Seeing as we have been working on a lot of ‘behind the scenes’ material this month, here’s an update on what we've been (and will be) up to!

We kicked off the month with a wonderful gig in the Colston Hall Foyer. It was a pleasure to be back, and we were so delighted with the amount of support – it really does mean a lot.

Last week we took a trip to Devon with film makers Scott Quinn and Corry Raymond to create a new music video. Director and editor Scott has been working his magic on the footage and we can’t wait to show everyone!

What we've been spending most of our time on is preparing to go into the studio tomorrow. We've been recording a range of demos for a while now, trying to shortlist which new track we all feel is the right one.

All of us are so excited to record again, and those pre-studio butterflies are starting to settle in! It’s going to be so exciting to be able to share something new with you, so keep a look out on our website for information and updates.

At the end of the month on the 30^th, we will be playing at the Old Theatre Royal for the Bath Fringe Festival. Playing alongside us will be Cindy Stratton and Marius Frank with special guest Ellie Frank. The Old Theatre Royal is a beautiful venue and we can’t wait to play there! Tickets are available direct from the Fringe Festival website.

All in all it’s an exciting month, and further updates on everything mentioned will be available from our website and social media sites.

Busy Weekend!

Wow! What a weekend we've just had!

It began on Friday evening with the launch night of our most recent single 'Falling For Orpheus' at the Watershed in Bristol.

The night started with brilliant pianist Ed Wren, joined by the equally talented Zoë Wren on vocals, who together performed a lovely chilled out set including the second part to 'Falling For Orpheus', named 'Eurydice Rising'. Ed later left the stage and Zoë picked up her acoustic guitar taking the night in a more folky direction. After this we had a short interval to give the wonderfully attentive audience a break and re-set the stage.

After a short break warming up, tuning our many many instruments, and running about the place in our ridiculous heels, we took to the stage. It was an absolute honour to play to such a wonderful audience. Also to have such beautiful projected visuals displayed behind us by Scott Quinn, and to be joined once again by the amazing Dear Light - Zoë kindly joined us for 'Falling For Orpheus' too.

Once the night was over we packed up and headed home to what would be a very short sleep before we were up again to play in Head Bristol as part of Record Store Day. In contrast to the previous night we played a much more subdued acoustic set. It was fun to do something so different.

We again got back into our rather cramped 'tour bus' and drove over to Chiselborough, near Yeovil Somerset where we would be playing a show in the village hall. This was the second village hall event we had been involved in and it was equally lovely. This time we'd come laden with candles and homemade cakes.

Beginning the night was wonderful folk musician Sharon Martin with her brilliant new band The Occasional Band. We then finished the evening with another acoustic(ish) performance and wrapped up a very enjoyable weekend.

Catch us next for a free entry show at The Colston Hall Foyer on 2nd May.

Colston Hall, Bristol

Well, last weekend was a little hectic. There's a few things worth mentioning and this is a little update on what we were up to.

Maxi Rai

Saturday we were lucky enough to have been booked by Bmin (Bristol Music Industry Network) to play in the Colston Hall foyer in Bristol. We had the pleasure of playing alongside the talented singer-songwriter Maxi Rai, who is well worth listening to if you haven't. She began the evening with a brilliant set which we thoroughly enjoyed.

When we stepped onto the stage I was pleased to see a nice sized audience ready to support us, which was really great. Our set had a mixture of old and new songs. Anja finally had the opportunity to join in with our on-mic ramblings. I think she wowed our audience when she produced a saw and played it for our new song 'Unheard Voice'.

All in it was a very nice evening and we really appreciated all the support we got from friends and fans alike. Watch out for videos of the evening on our Youtube channel and Facebook page.

On Sunday evening we headed down to the Bradley Stoke Radio station to join in the fun on James Hyden's show. It's safe to say the evening didn't start well. During all the chaos at home we managed to not only leave late, but we also left behind Natalie's bass guitar amp (Whoops!). Luckily we were able to laugh about it and adapted our set. 

It was a fun show involving us playing a few live tracks, and in between, having a few silly conversations – I may have got the giggles once or twice. We discovered that Anja has a problem with a certain fruit and Natalie dislikes....well....pretty much everything.

Our next gig in Bristol is on the 14^th November supporting the Bluetones front man Mark Morriss at The Thunderbolt, Bristol. It's £10 on the door, but we have a £6 cheap list so if you would like your name added just email us at info@wolfhoundlive.com.
