Hello Lance
Thanks so much for the lovely article! Was nice to meet you on Saturday - hope to see you again soon!
Grace (the one with the dark hair in the middle!)
thanks lance for the great review you gave my mam's (grace) group's gig at durham market place.
was just wondering out of interest if you've heard any of drummer seb rochford's polar bear. they're a really interesting new jazz group from london.
all the best,
scott
Hi Scott - yeah the Fenners are great. I caught Polar Bear at The Cluny in Newcastle a couple of years back and I must confess they were a bit too contemporary for my taste. However, the audience, many of whom were my age (think Methuselah), loved them so maybe next time round I'll appreciate them more.
A day to remember, the sparkling Fenner Sisters with Dave Connoly's backing tracks saw to that.
Nostalgia has never been so good. When is the next party Durham? Soon we hope!
Valerie, Jimmy and Jane.
I saw Polar Bear at the Cluny it was actually October last year, was a good night. Hope you like em more the next time round!
Your mam thinks you're great as well! lol
