Hi Listeners
Straight from their recording session on the stage of this years Phoenix FM`s Creative Session I was joined in the studio by Velvet Tree, they where the first off what was going to be a surprisingly packed Sunday Lunch show with a 60 piece choir!! yes that’s right!! and the band calico still to come.
they describe themselves as;
“In 1998, Tarek and I started a band with the intention of forming a predominantly acoustic act – acoustic guitars, harmonica, some percussion…..that sort of thing. 6 months later we’d acquired bass, drums, electric guitar, keyboards and viola. So much for that idea then. Far too many years later, now with Joe on board, we’re having another crack at it…..”
