They made their live debut as guest at the Strawbs Christmas Party in 2008, by kind invitation of Dave Cousins, and were to have played a slot at the Strawbs 40th anniversary celebrations in 2009 but had to pull out owing to family illness. This and the following night's show at The Hythe Centre, Staines, Middlesex are their two first full-scale shows, and they'll draw on the rich vein of Strawbs music, often selecting material that is some way off the beaten track. Selections for this show are likely to include: "Fingertips", "Tell Me What You See In Me", "When You Were A Child", "The Golden Salamander", "The Flower And The Young Man" and many more.
