To See The Glanton Flower Show
Early 20th Century Glanton Flower Show song
John Carr-Ellison of Hedgeley Hall has kindly given us a copy of an unusual and amusing document that he found among his grandfather’s papers. It’s a typewritten copy of the lyrics to a humorous song written by Mr Sam Dunn sometime between 1917 and 1923.
The Happy Cats (Powburn 2017)
The Happy Cats
A drop of the Irish, a spoonful of Country, a splash of Cajun and a twist of folk…
was back at Powburn on Saturday evening (17 June 2017). Almost one year to the date since The Happy Cats gave their their last sell-out performance at Breamish Hall.
The Happy Cats (Powburn 2016)
The Happy Cats
A drop of the Irish, a spoonful of Country, a splash of Cajun and a twist of folk returned to Powburn last Saturday night (25 June 2016) in the form of The Happy Cats, almost two years after their last sell-out performance at Breamish Hall.
And last weekend’s gig was no exception. The multi-talented line-up of Marty Craggs (lead vocals, saxophone, harmonica, flute, tin whistle, tambourine, bodhran), Les Dodd (guitar, vocals) and Lenny Brown (accordion, vocals) got the crowd buzzing with electrifying performances from start to finish. By the end of a terrific evening of Celtic sounds, mixed with Geordie and Irish folk, underpinned by stirring rock and roll rhythms, the crowd were on their feet with grins as wide as…well…a happy cat! Just outstanding!
