Gigs this weekend
I've been busy rehearsing with the band for the last couple of weeks as we're playing our first show under the new name, James and the Giant, this weekend. Details below.
Firstly, if you're in the London area this evening (Friday 27th February), why not pop along to CafeDirect's TasteFair Friends' Friday event for FairTrade Fortnight? I'll be playing a solo spot and it's also a chance to find out more about Cafe Direct and sign up to become a Friend of Cafe Direct if you're not already. More information at www.tastefair.co.uk.
And tomorrow night, Saturday 28th March, I'm performing with James and the Giant at The Box in Crewe. Here's the press release:
James and the Giant
Live At The Box, Crewe
Saturday 28th February 2009
Sparks will be flying down at The Box this Saturday night as new acoustic band James and the Giant perform their first official gig.
Saturday 28th February will be the historic night for the band, led by Crewe based singer-songwriter Dayve Dean. James and the Giant play a mixture of acoustic and folk-pop, channelling the likes of REM, Tom Waits, David Gray and Aimee Mann into their original music. Completing the line-up is local radio DJ Dan Logan on drums and guitarists Carl Hill and Steve Welch.
It is the first time that the band will have performed live under their new name James and the Giant, having already played a number of shows in support of Dayve Dean’s latest album Octagon towards the end of 2008. You can listen to songs from the record at www.dayve.co.uk and check out the band at www.jamesandthegiant.co.uk.
The Box is a new music venue located on Pedley Street, just opposite Crewe railway station and is building an excellent reputation as a live venue. They are committed to bringing the best of signed and unsigned acts from around the country to Crewe’s burgeoning music scene, with live nights every Friday and Saturday nights.
Also on the bill on Saturday night are indie bands Sold Out Story, The Mons and Model Radio. The show starts at 8pm and entry is £4 on the door.

Hi Dayve,
I wish I could stayed for the gig on Friday, but it was lovely meeting you. By all accounts, it was excellent!
Good luck,
Helen
