MISTYS BIG ADVENTURE
A glorious 8 piece band from Birmingham in the UK, made up of brothers and sisters and twins and saxophones and trumpets and cute, weird dancers who produce the most uplifting, life affirming tunes you will hear since Louie Armstrong played with the Lovin Spoonful.
Dave from The Zutons loves them, so much so that he invited them on tour, twice and we were invited to support The Magic Numbers, The Guillemots and The Pipettes last year


If you wish to purchase any bit of Misty's merchandise such as T Shirts, CD's or finger puppets, then the best thing you can do is get yourself down to the MISTY'S LITTLE SHOP

It was made by Mark Locke and his site features other Mistys' videos including THE STORY OF LOVE and HEY MAN

Thanks for the BNP blog. it felt good to get my spleen vented. I have some work hung outside in Glastonbury, take a look if your bored enough. Not so much guerilla art, as a hanging monkey. Beats sitting on my-space all day though, apparently.

Ach, really sad I can't make it to your Birmingham gig tonight, it's been too long since I've seen you play. Is it really a year since the Jug of Ale closing-down gig? Anyway, best wishes for tonight and the rest of the tour. Catch you soon!
