AUGUST & SEPTEMBER UPDATE

It has been a busy time for us Siren Sisters!  In August we sang in Welsh at the Eisteddfod (We are not Welsh speakers so it was quite nervewracking) and toured with the lovely Only Men Aloud as their support.  An article about us was in the South Wales Echo and Western Mail and we were also reviewed at the hottest sweatiest gig possible at Gwdihw!  It was kind luckily :-) I have spent a lot of time with Matthew Dentus (filming and editing extraordinaire) chopping up bits of our Summer show into videos for Facebook and our site....it has taken a long time.  A proper showreel is in the pipeline but I'm doing that on my own so might take a while.....me and Macs have a love/hate relationship!

 

So what's happening this month some of you have been asking!  September started with singing at the wedding of a lovely couple (Sara and John) who are kind of family friends and had such a tasteful, spohisticated wedding.  We may have snuck into the jacuzzi........it wasn't me!

 

We are performing on Friday 14th at MOD St Athan in the Sergeant's Mess.  It is all very 'top security' and we all have to have photo ID to be let in.  It is through an agent we haven't worked for before so we will let you know how it goes.

 

On the 29th we are doing our first gig in what seems like ages with our band at St Donat's Arts Centre; Mark on drums, and the two Daves on piano and double bass.  The Dave thing gets a bit confusing. We wish we could gig with these guys all the time.  It is a posh dinner event if you fancy it? http://www.stdonats.com/event/stand-to-attention-for-the-siren-sisters

 

And to top it all off, the following morning we will be visiting Roy Noble on his debut weekend show.  He has left his daily show in order to have  more relaxed schedule and will now be on the airwaves on a Sunday morning.  To listen in just go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/en/console/bbc_radio_wales on Sunday 30th September.  It is also my dads birthday that day (and Jo's dad because we are real siblings) so we will be giving him a shout out! 

 

Thanks for reading,
