A belated thank you to the organisers for inviting me to play some tunes for The Coco Club Tea Dance last Sunday at the The Bear Hotel . Having not quite recovered from a wonderful night dancing to Jack Calloway at the Corn Exchange, Devizes it was a lovely way to round off the weekend. Thankyou to everyone that danced but especially to those who took the time to thank me personally for my selection of tunes, it’s always a joy to share some of my favourites with you!

It’s almost here, The Coco Club Christmas Ball and it’s going to be a cracker! Don’t forget to join us at The Bear Hotel on Sunday for the Tea Dance. I’ll be playing mellow melodies with a sprinkling of festive favourites for an afternoon of dancing, see you there!

Ready to dance the night away, with live entertainment provided by the fabulous Jack Calloway and his Parlophonians?

The 1930s Coco Club presents their Christmas Ball, portraying the music, glamour and style as seen in a Fred Astaire - Ginger Rogers film and celebrates the golden age of British Dance Band music!

Had an excellent night at Paper Moon: Ali Affleck & her Gin Genies. Thanks to Nikki Santilli for the invitation to DJ. It was an absolute pleasure to be able to share some of my favourite tunes but slightly frustrating not to be dancing to them 😁 Thanks to Dave Piggott for the picture
