    Crystal Bats At TTSF:13

  • Axel Loughrey’s new album, Crayon Factory, to be released on All Sorted!?! Records on 26th November 2012.  I am playing drums on all the tracks on this album.

    Crayon Factory will be available to buy online, on iTunes, Amazon, Play.com, etc. from the 26th.

  • I shall be playing piano with the Joe Ringer Band for this nostalgic concert series.

    Find yourself transported back to those cool, easy listening days of the 50s & 60s when you will be treated to the hits of Frank Sinatra, Burt Bacharach, Dusty Springfield, Bobby Darin, Aretha Franklin and many more of your favourite artists.

    Top vocalist Joe Ringer leads his 8-piece band through a selection of truly classic favourites to create a laid back, swinging night to remember.

    So, if you ‘Just Don’t Know What To Do With Yourself’, grab your ‘Wives & Lovers’ and enjoy ‘Music to Watch Girls by’, with matinée and evening shows on 17th November 2012, at The Fisher Theatre, Bungay, and another evening show at Dereham Memorial Hall on 22nd February 2013.

    Get tickets for the two performances at The Fisher Theatre on 17th November 2012 here. Tickets for the performance at Dereham Memorial Hall on 22nd February 2013 will be available soon.

  • Crystal Bats will be supporting UK chart-toppers Sam And The Womp when they come to Norwich Waterfront on 3rd December this year, as part of their UK winter tour.

    Tickets cost £8, and can be bought from the UEA Ticket Bookings website here.

  • “Arabella” – the new single from Crystal Bats – is released today.  (The launch party is tonight at The Birdcage in Norwich, for anyone looking to attend.)

    I appear in the music video for “Arabella”, playing synths and keyboard, and you can watch it here:

    And thanks to Charlotte Rutherford for this snap of me on set at the video shoot:

    I am very excited to start playing keyboards in East Anglia’s most exciting and dynamic party and function band, the Joe Ringer Band. Playing an entertaining mix of classic party tunes and modern pop hits, with everything from swing and soul to rock and pop thrown in, these are going to be some very fun gigs indeed!

    My gigs with the Joe Ringer Band start from the middle of October, and I’m looking forward to getting the ball rolling with them.
