Thanks to everyone who came to see us last week at the Marlborough jazz festival – apologies again for the slightly delayed start, circumstances out of my control! We really enjoyed the gig though, and hanging around at the festival afterwards as well. Continuing the recent theme of posting videos of gigs I’ve been to, here’s a track from Polar Bear’s set – ‘Happy For You’, one of my favourite tracks from their latest album (which is possibly my favourite album of theirs too!):
Also here’s a nice picture of Sam and Anton taking a quick paddle in the river with the ducks, isn’t that nice…
