New videos from the Hideaway!

Hello folks,

Thought I’d drop a quick post to share a few videos that have emerged from the rather excellent Hideaway YouTube channel.

After the success of our Bond shows a couple of months ago we recently put on a brand new show dedicated to the music of Aretha Franklin. We featured the awesome Nina Ferro and Brendan Reilly (of Basement Jaxx). Here’s Nina singing (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman

And here’s Nina and Brendan performing the classic duet I Knew You Were Waiting For Me

Last weekend was the premiere of our new Disco Divas show with Nina Ferro and Annabel Williams featuring the music of Donna Summer, Chaka Khan, Whitney Houston and Gloria Gaynor. Here’s Nina and Annabel performing Cheryl Lynn’s Got To Be Real. If you’re only gonna watch one of these three videos, watch this one!

This month we’ve got the David Bowie show with David McAlmont and Sam Obernik (13-15th June) and our Ella Fitzgerald/Sarah Vaughan nights (27-29th June) featuring Nicola Emmanuelle and Juliet Roberts. All these shows have been put together and arranged by our illustrious leader Janette Mason. Get yourselves some tickets folks…

Bond Is Back!! Hideaway 18th-20th April

Hello folks,

Just a quick post to remind you that our fantastic Bond extravaganza will be returning to the HIdeaway stage  for three consecutive nights next week April 18th-20th. We premiered the show last month and it was a huge success.

Annabel + David

The show features David McAlmont and Annabel Williams up front and a great band including Janette Mason, Simon Lea, Billy Adamson, Paul Jayasinha, Simon Allen, and Harry Brown. We’re playing all the classic Bond tunes with some awesome arrangements.

Here’s a video of Annabel singing Skyfall from the last show. I’d get booking now if I were you…

This Saturday Night: Our Bond Extravaganza!

Ladies and gentlemen, this Saturday night you all need to be at Hideaway in Streatham.

It’s our first ever Bond theme extravaganza featuring two of my favourite vocalists; David McAlmont and Annabel Williams and some amazing new arrangements by our MD Janette Mason. We’ve got three horns on this show and if the rehearsal on Tuesday was anything to go by, it’s gonna be a fantastic show.

We played two nights at Hideaway last week to celebrate the venue’s third birthday which was a riot. David and Annabel were on these shows too (as well as Brendan Reilly and Gwyneth Herbert) and we previewed a couple of the new Bond arrangements. There are so many great Bond tunes to choose from. Needless to say we’re doing all the classics!

Here’s a video from the birthday shows featuring a duet between Annabel and Brendan Reilly. Loved playing this song…

If you can’t make this Saturday, fear not: we will be playing the Bond show with David and Annabel again for three nights April 18-20th so you’ll have a second chance to see it. If you do want to come tomorrow night I strongly suggest you book your tickets right now as I know it is selling out fast.

Hopefully see some of you there!

Until next time…
