The band got together in its present line up and promptly went into the recording studio to record ‘From Norfolk to Nashville’ just prior to a successful trip to Nashville in November. Charles M King was invited to attend the Resophonic Summit in Nashville where he was the only Englishman there. We got to play in some amazing places in Nashville and made some good contacts. Some numbers from the Nashville cd are still featured in the country charts out there and are played on radio stations worldwide.

The Bluegrass Forum enjoyed another busy year playing festivals, weddings, parties,
beer festivals and other public venues involving alcoholic refreshment. The band have been putting together a vast new variety of new feisty numbers ranging from the emotional to the usual foot stomping style.
Rehearsals are always good fun with much red wine and Slewfoot beer consumed with various pastry items thrown in.
The band went out to Leeder’s Farm Studio and recorded six new tracks in the autumn with Owen Morgan. These tracks have featured on BBC Radio Norfolk and are played regularly. Most of these tracks can be listened to now on Utube.
The band were asked to host a Nashville Night at the Assembly House which was a sell out and very successful. The chef produced Nashville style food of pulled pork
( don’t ask…) and deep fried chicken, pumpkin pie and other gems. We have been asked to do another which will be advertised on our gig listings for 2011.
2011
The band are back in the recording studio in March at Leeder’s Farm with Owen Morgan to record another six tracks for their new cd coming out in late spring.
Bookings are looking good so far with many weddings, parties, festivals and other public gigs already in the diary. Keep a look out on our gig page.
Exciting news as we now have an agent from Cambridge so we are hoping to do a lot more festivals and Art Centre gigs. Watch this space !
