Since forming in late July 2007 Fox Cubs have shared the stage with a variety of artists including Pull Tiger Tail, iForward Russia!, Goodbooks, Eastern Conference Champions, The Hours, Red Light Company, Future Of The Left and Kong. Last year the band recorded live sessions for both Radio One and XFM, headlined Steve Lamacq’s stage at the 2008 Camden Crawl, performed on the BBC Introducing stage at Glastonbury, Reading and Leeds festivals, played as part of the BBC Electric Proms. They rounded it off by filming one of the now legendary JD set presents shows for Channel 4.
Unfortunately Fox Cubs called it a day in March 2009.
John Marriott, James Johnson & Tim Baggott now write and perform in Worship.
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!
