We heard today from Lexie Green who played the Little Rabbit Barn last month and is incredible, that she only had four people show for a gig in Cambridge. Only 4 in Cambridge... where are these music lovers?

She would rather have come to see Shelly Fairchild and Morganway with us but she made the mistake of honouring her commitment.
Only we can prevent empty venues, by turning up and dragging people along or we face a world of Spotify.
That is very sad. I support my favourite art forms by going to the opera, classical concerts and the cinema as often as I can, although the first in particular has become an expensive treat these days!
