mince pie, I say.

A s the Christmas party season gets underway, and following
on from the success of the August festival, Saturday
December 4th marks the date for the fi rst ever Local & Live
Winter Concert at the Assembly Halls, featuring Tunbridge
Wells groups The Charlie Rivers Band and The Paul Dunton Orchestra.
PAUL SAYS: "I am delighted and honoured to be sharing the bill with
The Charlie Rivers Band for this inaugural Local & Live Winter concert.
We are both very ‘fi red up’ about performing at The Assembly Hall; it is
not often that two local acts get the opportunity to play a 1,000 seater
venue such as this. The Charlie Rivers Band have established themselves
as one of the leading acts on the local scene and continue to go from
strength to strength having just recently supported Newton Falkner at
an exclusive gig aboard the HMS Belfast.
PAUL AGAIN: "I will be performing with my entire crew which will
mean 10 violins, 10 cellos, 2 fl utes, guitar and piano alongside vocalist
Fiona Keeler. The music is a fusion of atmospheric pop/alternative with
a classical twist. My infl uences include composers such as Barber and
Rachmaninov and modern-day songwriters such as Neil Young, Damien
Rice and Burt Bacharach."
