We received some bad news from keyboard player Paul Morris last week who was due to tour with us across the UK starting starting next month.
Without going into full details, Paul has had to pull out of our tour due to some serious family issues. We shall miss him massively.
After quite an exhaustive search for a replacement for the tour we have been very fortunate to secure the services of Nigel Hopkins who has excellent credentials which are second to none, having worked with Jon Lord and also with Deep Purple themselves at the Royal Albert Hall concert in memory of Jon Lord’s life.
Nigel is a highly respected and sought after musician whose credits include but are not limited to: Glenn Hughes and Bruce Dickinson, Chris De Burgh, Bonnie Tyler, Elvis Costello, Mica Paris plus many more.
We must also thank the international musical community for casting the net out in our quest to find the right person to ensure that the show goes on. There are too many to name individually, but we thank you all so much and you have our eternal gratitude. The show goes on and we look forward to seeing you all very soon.
Credit to Nigel, he was excellent at the Haverhill gig on friday.
Best wishes to all the band for a great show.
Michael
