The C.C.Smugglers have emerged from the depths of the beautiful English South, crawled out from there individual little stones to sit in a cabin in the heart of Shire country to write the most foot stompin' swing beatin' concoction of Bluegrass Country n Blues since the king crossed over country n' blues in the 50's to make his equally envigorating brand of rock n roll.... ------------
RICHIE PRYNNE'S most recent project was Pussy Liquor Blues where he played his gritty raw blues and Country tunes all by his lonesome and honed his creative channels... ---------------
RYAN THOMAS and TOMMY PHOENIX's guitars blend together as well as the blood they share. After some time on the road with DAN EDWARDS, all three have recently returned from a two year busking tour of America Canada and Australia, where they quite literally coined the phrase, you can't play the blues 'till you lived 'em... --------
SPARK. L. HORSE - branches out to the familiar world of Bluegrass where he plays the meanest fastest tightest skiffle beats in the south. Previously, he could be found playin the hardest most aggressive Punk n Roll beats in the Smoking Hearts... --------
Seperatley they are but Men...
Together they become,
With great Joy I'm pleased to introduce to you... Ladies and Gentlemen...

As you may or may not be aware SoundARC hold a charity gig every year at Club 85 in Hitchin in aid of the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, and this year we are going to try something a little different from previous years.
This year we are going to take over the club and host 37 acts in one weekend putting full bands upstairs and acoustic acts downstairs in an event that we are calling ARCfest!
It all starts on Friday 4th December at 7pm and then continues on through Saturday 5th and Sunday 6th from 12pm-11pm
As well as raising money for the Garden House Hospice in Letchworth, ARCfest will showcase all the different genres of bands that we at SoundARC have come across over the last 4 and a half years. Over this weekend a lot of the acts that you will see don’t get a chance to play a great local venue like Club 85, So as well as hearing new music you will see all manors of genres and styles from acoustic - Metal - Indie - Rock - Punk - Electro - Ska - Funk - Hip Hop/Rap - Alternative - Rhythm & Blues - Reggae - Grunge and loads more that I cant remember!
Thanks for the add guys - once again, your set last night in the Half Moon was great fun. Put you guys as a headline act in a big beer festival and that would be a great thing to see!
As you may or may not know im fucking off to live in Berlin in a week or so.... so wish me well or tell me to piss off while listening to some punk rock
