IN FLESH FESTIVAL-ING (!) ONCE AGAIN!

Updated: 28 August 2022

It has been fantastic to be back singing in person at the summer Festivals and meeting up with many of you for the first time in a long time. Many, many musical highlights, one of them has to be a chance to collaborate again with our comrades in song, the fabulous Melrose Quartet, as THE MELSONS, when we managed to adjust the height of The Whitby Spa Pavilion Theatre ever so slightly! Lots coming up for the Wilson Family, we head to Tenterden Kent next and continue to finalise the new songs for our new album, which we start recording in November. Hopefully we will see you in your neck of the woods soon!...:
