The Drones in Leicester We have 4 days work in Leicester over this autumn, working with young people with Special Educational Needs. Our first day was a great success at the Soar Valley Music Centre. Here's some quotes following the day: “It’s so creative, it gives the children freedom to express themselves and experiment with instruments” “They get all the kids involved. I’ve really seen their confidence grow today, and children of all different abilities have got involved” “I’m really impressed. They’ve been really focused, everyone’s been taking part. It’s lovely how the group understand the individual needs of the children. Our group is quite complex, so it was nice how patient the group was, and how there was both audio and visual stimulants. All of the children loved it, and they interacted well with the music. I would definitely bring a group to this event again” For the full feedback click here. Recent gig We recently were a featured band at the One World Club at The Mitre Pub in Greenwich. This free music club meets every Thursday upstairs in the pub. You can order a meal and eat it listening to fantastic music/poetry/readings. Our half hour set went down a storm. They videoed it, so we hope to have the footage before too long. Meanwhile we thoroughly recommend a visit to the Club.

All are healed up now though and we hope to resume soon. We will post up bits as we go. Film News Great news! Lucia Ashmore's film "Eric's Secrets" - for which she has used one of Giles' compositions "Song Without Words" as the soundtrack - was nominated for the Best UK Short Film award at the 2008 East End Film Festival, and has won the Jury Prize! Congratulations Lucia! To have a look and listen click here. "Song Without words" can be found on our album Sounds From The Beehive
