I’m really enjoying gigging with acoustic melodicists Delicatessen with a rush of gigs as we warm up to
summer…and bookings already coming in for the autumn.

Delicatessen have a line=up of up to eight people: accordion/vocals, violin, violin/vocals, percussion, percussion/vocals, oud/vocals/percussion, guitar and bass. We play songs from Greece and Turkey and the Balkan regions.

On Wednesday 22nd June we will be playing the Regents Place Summer Festival. This will be a free public performance beginning at 1pm.
Regents Place is near Euston and Warren Street.

Friday 1st July will see us return to Jamboree, a fabulous and unique venue in Limehouse. Don’t let the location put you off: this is a stunning venue only 15-20 minutes from central London by DLR. Doors
will open at 8pm and entry is £5. Cable Street Studios, 566 Cable
Street, London E1W 3HB http://jamboreevenue.co.uk/archives/402

The weekend is all Delicatessen magic as, the very next day (July 2nd),
we play The World Party in the Park,in Eastrop Park, Basingstoke. Free entry 12-6pm…Not sure when we’re on yet, details to follow. The line-up also includes Keith Waite‘s Macusi Players who are well worth
seeing. http://www.worldpartyinthepark.org.uk/WhatsOn.html

Sunday 3rd July, that same weekend, brings a Delicatessen performance at the inaugural Cally Festival. The event will be held on Caledonian Road just North of Kings Cross and will feature a range of pop-up stalls, music and the arts, food and sports activities in a true community street festival. The event is due to run from 12 till 6m – we’re due on the main stage at 1:25pm.

On Sunday 10 July Delicatessen play at Hackney Forge, 243a Victoria Park Rd, London E9 7HD. 18:30 – 21:00. We are return to the beautiful space just by Victoria Park. Last year in July we had a very, very good time there on a warm summer’s evening. Come and join us for this one..

short these summer breaks ever are…) after this one.
