Mrs Yarringtons Music Club,
Crowhurst Park,
Battle
Prita
Next up at Mrs
Yarringtons at Crowhurst Park as part of her latest UK tour is Aussie
songstress Prita. With a unique sound described as ?Hip-So-Fo?, it combines
her love of Hip-Hop, Soul and Folk with the use of a live loop pedal and
effortlessly layers of funky urban harmonies, acoustic fingerpicking guitar
and beat boxing. These contrasting dynamics add to her live solo show, which
audiences have described as ?captivating, inspiring and uplifting?. Prita?s
songwriting is both storytelling and Jazzy and with her big bluesy soulful
voice and a natural ear for harmony; she has been likened to KT Tunstall and
Norah Jones.
Her grassroots fan base is growing steadily due to the past 4 years of
independent touring, and festivals in both in Australia and Europe, with
stints in the USA, and Thailand. Prita has also released 4 CD?s the latest
being ?New Life?. With Festival appearances all over the globe and her recent
tour of the UK and Europe covering 5 countries and over 30 concerts has
confirmed her popularity amongst audiences, Prita is one to watch, a star on
the rise?
Tickets:?6 Members / ?10 non-members which includes years club membership

Subject: Horsmonden trad music class Wednesday 25th April
The next Horsmonden
traditional music class is on Wednesday the 25th April. The tunes - Paddy Carrey and Jenny Lind -
are on the website now.
We'll likely play a
couple of tunes from earlier classes to warm up, but the real work of the
evening will be to concentrate on the new tunes, which we'll play steadily
and slowly, only moving on to the next one when it seems right to do so.
We'll also spend some time thinking about how we can tackle the tunes and
make them lively, danceable and interesting.
Towards the end of the evening, we may retire to the bar for some rather more
informal sessioning!
The trad music class
meets at the Gun & Spitroast pub at Horsmonden at 8pm on the second and
fourth Wednesdays of the month. The classes are free and all are welcome.
Download pdfs, abcs and access YouTubes of the tunes we're working with at:

While you're reading -
please don't forget the Jim Causley night at the White Lion, in
Tenterden?s High Street on the 27th April 2011,
starting at 8pm. It's a 'Jim and friends' evening, and the friends on this
occasion are Rosie, Julie and myself.
Sunday 29th will be the night of
the last regular Frittenden session of the year, and we'll have Fritt favourite Nigel
Hobbins guesting at the Bell & Jorrocks - so don't miss that night's
fun!
