Gonna Be Quirk

04/10/2023

Everyone I'm turning 40 😬
So to make me feel better...
Please buy yourself the new
Dutty Moonshine Big Band album before midnight *TODAY* for my birthday present. Have a dance on me/on you(?!) and more importantly help them get into the TOP 40 in the UK chart THIS WEEK!
Help introduce the UK majority to some real party starting music..!
If there's any band on the festival circuit with the potential to get caught up in the big time it's these guys. Dutty Moonshine smashed it out at Gonnabesick Parties' legendary first Pirate Boat Party on my 30th birthday (and many other GBS Parties, and GBQ during lockdown..), somehow a DECADE ago (wtf), and what he's built since is without doubt, a SICK band. A SICK act. And this is another SICK album.
So in the spirit of top 40s, chuck a tenner on a future collectible!
Buy a CD and turn the big heads on the global stage towards the kind of music WE want to dance to!
And as well as that shiny happy feeling you'll get when you know you helped them chart.. you get some fu***ng awesome tunes!
VAMANOS!

Villain, The new album from Dutty Moonshine Big Band, on CD. Release Date: 29th September 2023 “Villain” is an album the band have spent the better part of 3-years writing, honing and perfecting their signature sound of heavy dance music meets bombastic brass. A sound like none other; a sound th...

£3,555.09! As anyone reading this probably knows, earlier this year we (Alan Flewker, Molly McQueen and Billy Boyles) organised and ran three virtual, online, festivals. These anti-loneliness parties were created to directly help people struggling with their mental health during such a strange and isolated time and to raise money to help combat the ongoing and future work mental health crisis created by Covid and the lockdowns.

In total we raised £3,555.09 for Mind. £3,273.60 through tickets and advance donations, which we've split equally 3 ways between Solent Mind, Bristol Mind, and London Mind. We also had a JustGiving page for ad-hoc donations which raised an extra £281.49 (https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/gbs-mind-2021)

Dozens of DJs, bands, circus performers, artists and more, and hundreds of party people all came together to create something incredibly memorable and very special that we are super proud of. Thank you all so much for getting involved and contributing. Hopefully we'll see you in a real field soon!
