Wall To Wall at Hideaway: The Bowie VideoBlog

Hello folks

Last week saw the debut of our new Bowie show at Hideaway featuring the awesome duo of David McAlmont and Sam Obernik. Or ‘Sam & Dave’ as they now like to be called…

We played three nights at Hideaway in Streatham with a great band including Janette Mason on piano, Jack Pollitt on drums and Dave Ital on guitar.

Sam Obernik

As usual, Hideaway have edited together a few videos from the show so I thought I’d post them all together here in what has become the traditional fashion. In fact I’d very much recommend subscribing to their YouTube channel to keep up to date with what’s going on over there. Anyway, here are the Bowie videos. I hope you enjoy them…

Our next show at Hideaway starts next week and will feature the music of Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan, presented by Nicola Emmanuelle and Juliet Roberts. I’d get booking if I were you folks…

See you there x

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…
