Hi All

Firstly some sad news - Phil Martin, one of the founders of Les Batons and a key performer at Les Batons and festivals in the UK and France, died from his heart problems on Saturday 18 October. Phil and his family wanted to keep this news away from social media and ask everyone to respect this. We'll all miss him and his music.

Secondly, our last Les Batons of 2014 (!) will feature our house band plus guest spots. Only ?5 for the afternoon!

Hollingbourne Village Hall KENT ME17 1TR at 1pm - music session beforehand at midday.
