Party in the Car Park

Well, Party in the Car Park was a HUGE success and I'd like to say a big thank you to everyone that came along to support the event. Over £800 was raised for the Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire Air Ambulances so we are very pleased. We are already planning next years concert which will be even bigger and better than this year!

Keep your eyes peeled in the local press for write ups on Sundays gig.

A big thank you to all the acts that gave up their time to entertain at the event.

A great day had by all!

Louise Martell hits the road again, Exeter, Ormskirk and Pontefract.

This weekend I'll be covering a fair few miles in the van with Planet Abba, travelling to Exeter Friday and Ormskirk on Saturday. And as there is no rest for the wicked (as they say) I'll be heading off solo on Sunday night to sunny Pontefract in Yorkshire. It's been a busy week getting the website up and running and thanks to all who've popped along to have a look (and to the talented Andy Mahoney of www.mahoneyelectrical.co.uk for putting it together!)

Still some dates available this year if you have any events coming up, so feel free to get in touch.
