Expect jazzy swing orientated bass music and jaw dropping singing that has captivated audiences at Boomtown, Electro Swing Club, Glade, White Mink, Speakeasy, Cabaret Voltaire, Secret Garden Party, Give!, Swingamajig & countless other shows around the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS0xbHj600g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zbq41xbd2OY ★ RAY OF CHARLES We are certain you will forgive us for stepping outside our era slightly with this booking because they so capture the dazzling energy that distinguishes a great speakeasy experience from a mediocre one. This is just a hugely uplifting act we simply couldn't resist. Russell Christian’s (of The Christians fame if you remember them) ability to capture the iconic sound of Ray Charles is uncanny, with his soul soaked voice and amazing instrumental ability on the piano and saxophone. One of the best tribute acts we've seen, the band have performed internationally in America, Asia and Europe, as well as recording and performing alongside such legends as Paul McCartney, James Brown and Barry White! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ipVPmdAJRY ★ DJ NICK HOLLYWOOD Described as 'the Godfather of Electro Swing' by The Telegraph - Nick is behind the White Mink compilations, the Freshly Squeezed label and radio shows, and the world's first Electro Swing club among many other things... here he takes time out from his busy schedule to do what he loves best... http://www.mixcloud.com/FreshlySqueezedMusic/freshly-squeezed-radio-no104-white-mink-special/ ★ ABAGAIL NÉNUPHAR - AERIALIST Abagail Nénuphar’s performances are lavish treats for the eye…… Unfurling displays of colour and operatic intensity, her daredevil circus acts are served with balletic elegance and sensuality. Nénuphar’s experience as a dancer brings a poise and sultry kineticism that is all her own. Mesmerising on the aerial hoop, captivating with silks and demonically entrancing as a fire-dancer, Nenuphar is a unique performer. The wild-spirited daughter of a champion motor-cycle racer, Abagail toured in circuses across India and Ireland, before running away from the circus to become a show in her own right. ★ As always, expect high production values, amazing music, world-class performers, a fantastic atmosphere and surprises galore!
