Sings we've done

Down in the Bathurst Basin you'll find the headquarters of Cabot Cruising Club, aboard a one hundred year old lightship. And if you're lucky, you might catch a few fish inside, squished onto the stage, singing their little fishy socks off. Bless'em.

In a bid to sxpand the reach of Kettle of Fish across the South West, we are indepbted to Chris and Lisa Samuels for inviting us to take part in the Bradford Roots Music Festival. What a great event! 2 days of live music programmed across three stages, and even at 11:15 on Sunday morning there was a large and enthusiastic audience.

We made our Bath debut with poet John Christopher Wood in June 2016, as part of the Bath Fringe Festival. We played to a packed house, although of course we cannot show a picture of the audience for confidentiality reasons. Just imagine this wonderful auditorium filed with happy punters - the happiest of whom was probably the lady Neil chose to join him for a dance.

We have enjoyed singing and being treated to pizza at Stroud Brewery. In Stroud. Kettle of Fish packed their microphones and maracas into the back of the van and drove up the A46 to entertain the lovely people of Stroud.

Kettle of Fish surprised people enjoying the cafe culture in Clifton village on a Saturday afternoon by spontaneously singing at them. We gave the world premiere of our Dreadlock Holiday in Victoria Square. We like to think our performance in the Colston Hall foyer on the Friday evening was a fitting climax to the fortnight of festive fun.

A Cappella on the National Health. Kettle of Fish were proud to take part in the Fresh Arts Festival.

Of course, not every band includes Southrop on their touring schedule, but we like to take the Fish Kettle out to the people, wherever they may be!

Bristol is host to many a festival, and we were priveleged to grace the Happy City stage at the Harbour Festival in 2013. Admittedly at 11:00 in the morning on Sunday when the audience were mainly picking up the litter from Saturday night. But we were jolly good. If any of Bristol's festivals need a 6 piece a cappella group, we're even better now!

You either loved it or you hated it. Or you didn't mind it. The Polish Club in Clifton was An Institution. This was where we first used the Kettle Of Fish Stage Banner, and boy did it make a difference? Combined with the twinkly lights and our very own KoF Sound System, it was a night to remember. So sad the Polish Club is no more - although it now hosts the Bristol Improv Theatre.

Surrounded by Roman remains, this was where we first sang about woodlice, to rapturous applause.
