The Black Velvet Band Press Release


Well, we bribed enough people to get an ad in the Irish Scene (monthly magazine for all things celtic and Irishy in Perth). We are going to ramp up the giggery this year, we have 4 gigs on paddies day this year (3 hour gigs each) and quite a bit going on with the classical stuff too. The other day I even bought a new set of strings!

We do a 2 piece, a 3 piece and a 4 piece with a bass player (we like to shuffle them around) and are pretty flexible doing averyting from country to folk.

On the 17th of march, it will have been a year since our first gig. The last year for the band has been great. We own our own equipment, and Adam keeps bringing a few new songs to each gig so it keeps it interesting for us.

Here's to another year of making noises in bars and getting free beers AND getting paid to do it!
