As the sun continues to shine it was lovely to look forward to a busy few days, especially over the weekend. Over in Southend at the Peter Boat on both Saturday and Sunday is the latest Band4Life event, this time in aid of St. Christopher’s School. I had the pleasure once again of being joined on the phone by Chris Powell who is helping organise it and it was great to hear his excitement about how it will unfold. I spoke to him on the eve of their last event back in December and, as then, the line up this time is looking good with the likes of Phillious Williams, The Good Jet Shooters who joined us here for the Phoenix Creative sessions and indeed White Devils’ Cause who have joined me here before on Musical Meanderings. If you’re able to head down to Old Leigh in Southend over the weekend you’re sure to find sunshine, lovely people and great music.
On a similar note, it’s also a busy weekend on the psychedelic trance front as there are a couple of great events to enjoy if you’re out and about on that side. There is a Chrysalid and Wildthings records outdoor event featuring the likes of Hoodwink, Avalon, E.V.P and Whiptongue, then if you’re staying in London there’s another wonderful Tribal Village event at the Crucifix Lane venue featuring Journey (Jay Om), Nick Sequenci, Fordy and Andy Force who also joined me a few weeks on the show. When the music meandered into a psychedelic vibe I enjoyed playing some of their music and looking forward to some sunshine. You can listen to the show again here:
