OXJAM - Oxfam's music festival - Friday August 27th
A great charity music night at The Coach and Horses.
As part of the Oxjam music festival, the Coach and Horses hosted a charity 'live music sessions' evening. A fine night's entertainment for a very worthy cause!
Choosing a bank holiday weekend and coinciding with the weekend music festival on Clapham Common was probably not the best of ideas. We certainly could have done with a few more folk turning up. Those that were there
definitely had a treat with some quality music from the artistes.
Our thanks to...
DaRinNicHa for arranging the night,
to for Nicolas Cornu for his hard work in looking after the sounds through out the night,
also to Simon Bennett for taking part as a the photographer,
and especially the artistes...
Lil' Lost Lou and Leo Smith her harmonica player.
Keiran Leonard and family (
Shepherd and Flock ).
Conveyor ( and sister, Charlotte Knowles. Enjoyed your
animation film )
The gig was FREE but donations were welcomed.

A special Quiz Night on behalf of Cancer Research
As well as the Quiz there were several raffles and an auction.
A word from the sponsors...
"...Thank you to everyone who came to the charity quiz on 17th June to raise money for Cancer Research. A huge thank you to Steve and his staff, all of the companies who donated prizes and most of all to the extraordinary generosity of the customers on the night. We managed to raise a very respectable £630 which goes a long way to helping us in our target to make a difference. As one guy said - we're all winners tonight, the biggest loser is Cancer!..."
