NEWS FROM THE PORCH, APRIL 2023

Hi folks,

Our next outing will be to a brand new venue in Ipswich, The Harp on Cauldwell Hall Road. Formerly the Lion’s Head and more recently the Old Times guest house, this wonderful local has been restored to its former glory and reopened last month.

We follow that in May by supporting Steve Walwyn’s Dirt Road Band at the Ipswich Jazz & Blues Club. The club’s monthly gigs are held at Venue 16, a terrific venue with a top quality stage and sound system. Tickets from www.ipswichjazzandblues.com.

Finally, some sad news. We have to report that “12 String Tony” passed away suddenly on the 9th April. Tony was a part of Back Porch from the start, only leaving the band in 2015 when he and his wife moved to Wales. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

More news to come next time and we hope to see you all soon.

Mike, Jon, Steve and Toni.
