HarmonicaUK Newsletter - June 2024

Welcome everyone to our newsletter covering the sunny month of June!

Have you booked your ticket for our Festival on October 25th until October 27th? If not, why not? Hurry as tickets are seriously selling superfast this year. Tickets are only available by booking through HarmonicaUK and not the hotel. So, if you enjoy fantastic music, concerts, workshops, ensemble, great food, superb accommodation and a lovely setting and having a good laugh with fellow friends from morning till night, please visit the website for your ticket and come along and join us.

We have lots of exciting things on our Newsdesk page for you to peruse at leisure, as well as forthcoming events listed on our events section of the website. Just to help you out, one thing you will find there is our very popular Saturday Session Workshop hosted by Dave and myself. This time, we are joined by the one and only Ricky Cool on Saturday 22nd June at 5 pm UK time. Ricky is a phenomenal harmonica player and is covering both chromatic and diatonic harmonicas. His workshop title is "Mississippi Saxophone". This session is definitely one not to miss.

Once again, come along and join Dave and myself hosting our Open Mic on Saturday 1st June at 5 pm UK time. Everyone welcome, friends, family, absolute beginners to professionals. Even if you fancy sitting back, relaxing and listening to everyone else play, please know that you are very welcome indeed.

Don't worry, I haven't forgotten our wonderful Coffee Mornings held every Friday at 11 am UK time and hosted by Dave Hambley. A good old natter with lovely friendly people. Latest updates are usually announced. Sometimes short videos are played. So grab your coffee and join Dave and the gang every Friday morning .

We are absolutely thrilled to announce Lee Van Crumpton is joining us at HarmonicaUK. Lee has been training for the last six months to be our Membership Secretary and will be joining the Committee imminently. A membership secretary as with all Committee posts is demanding, so a huge thanks to Lee for stepping up and helping us with his expertise.
Warm welcome Lee and welcome to the team here at HarmonicaUK👏

Well, that's all folks!! Until the next time, take care and keep making beautiful music.

Don't forget to book your tickets for our festival! 🎶
