A couple of weeks ago I took Myles and Barnaby and a friend of their’s up to The Brewery Arts Centre in Kendal (what a brilliant place it is – and not so far away either!). We went to see the band, Ska Cubano. This is all part of my resolution to hear more live music in 2010.
Ska Cubano won’t appeal to everyone. But I was a student in the 80s and I was listening to stuff like The Specials and Madness (bit lightweight!) and it was very popular back then. And its really happy, happy music. You just want to dance. I didn’t realise what a good reputation they have either – they just got a brilliant review in the Times on Saturday for their third album which has just been released.
S0 check out Ska Cubano on YouTube and check out The Brewery Arts Centre in Kendal too – fabulous. www.breweryarts.co.uk There is a great bar with plenty of atmosphere, selling good food t0o, so you can have something before a performance.
We also went to see Django Bates in April - jazz. Loved it. Even if you don’t like jazz, you’d have to admit that they are brilliant musicians. Personally, jazz is like balm to my soul – I love it. Again this was reviewed in The Times.
Happy Tuesday, guys.
