Foreign Secretary Annual Garden Party 12th June
Remember this event last year?
The Melodians were invited to play at the Foreign Secretary’s Annual Garden Party on 12th June. They were delighted to accept (even though they were flying out to Belarus the next day) and arrived at Lancaster House for the evening event.
Everything went well and they also met a few celebrities at the event. Here are a few photos from the evening.
Art Night 2019 Review
Art Night 2019 was a fantastic event. The Melodians performed 3 sets between 5.30pm and 9pm. It was noticeable that the crowd in Pancras Square would increase when our performance was due and each performance gradually got a bigger and more enthusiastic audience. We had to do an encore after the final performance as the audience was so keen!
Here is a video of the first performance of Rasputin.
Art Night 2019
This Saturday 22nd June will be Art Night 2019 in Kings Cross and Walthamstow. Don’t forget that the Melodians will be playing in Pancras Square Kings Cross from 5pm.
