EXR Jam sessions in Chorlton

Hey - just a heads-up for all the musicians out there. EXR, who run a lot of gigs in Manchester, run a weekly jam session at the Lounge Bar, Wilbraham Road, Chorlton.

The session is acoustic - they have congas, djembes, bongos, tambourines etc set up as well as a bass amp and a good PA/mics etc. They’re also looking to get a good percussion section together - anyone can join in. Also acoustic artists and bands are welcome to come and do a short set/jam.

EXR are running an acoustic competition at the same time. For more details on all this see: http://exr.org.uk/

Manchester review

Was really chuffed to get this review from Manchester Music. It’s of an unknown demo with two tracks on it… God knows what that was then It could be “My Mind’s Eye”, which is currently my first track on my Myspace siteIt’s described as intriguing and (very) recommended. Thanks Manchester Music people!
