We had an amazing time last night at the Jericho Tavern playing the Oxford City Festival! Thanks to Ash Lewis, Cora Pearl, The Other Dramas and Crystallite for your awesome sets, to Umair for the fantastic sound, and to all of you who came along and made the vibe so warm.
Thank you so much to Gappy Tooth
for putting us on last night! We had an incredible time on stage, and
loved hearing
The Quentins and Blushes. Thank you to everyone who shared
the musical moments with us.
Jack
and I are so proud to be taking up the musical torch and following in
Danny's footsteps. Thank you to everyone who supports us along the way,
it means more than you can know
.
It's good to note the musical genes surfacing in Rose Segal and brother Jack, also here playing double base, seeing as they are the offspring of the late, great Oxfordshire bluesman Danny Segal from the Mojo Bones.
Rose tenders a more English drawing room pop with her octave-vaulting trill, reminiscent of an All About Eve 'Martha Harbour' folk-gothic or Judie Tzuke in captivating 'All The Colours', while the upbeat tropic swing of 'Torrent or Shower' is ear-catching coda to an ever improving set.
And *thank you* so much to everyone who came and supported us, your presence means so much.
Ophelia Video Released
Friday 8th July 2016
I am so excited to share with you my song "Ophelia" arranged by Tom Proctor and sung by ourselves with the Oxford Singers. Thank you to Foxglove Productions for the beautiful video. I hope you all enjoy!
Nearly a year ago, Rose joined Oxford Singers and offered us the chance to do one of her songs as an original for the choir.
I had great fun working with her in arranging it for SATB [Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass] and adapting it for a different setting, and we first performed the arrangement in a concert back in March.
A few months later, and we've recorded it as a fully edited video, courtesy of the team at Foxglove Productions.
Thank you all for getting involved and being so enthusiastic, and
thank you Rose for writing this and taking us along for the ride!

John Wright and I have been back in the studio putting the fnal touches on on All The Colours.
It will be coming to your ears very soon. I can't wait to share it with you all!
It was so awesome to play our first gig at The Bullingdon (Oxford) last night! Thanks for having us! And to Luke Almond, Ocean Ruins, Dear Hero and Club Soda for your wonderful performances.
Second reason to be buzzing all Saturday... We had an incredible time on stage at Klub Kakofanney last night!! Awesome crowd to play to, and so much fun dancing to the other bands. Thanks Sue and Phil for putting us on, and to you lovely friends and family for supporting us.
Last night I was told how many bands have gone before us on this
stage. But most importantly, I was following in the footsteps of my dad,
Danny Segal.
Thanks for having us, Jericho Tavern! Thanks to Jon Wright for playing ALL the instruments, and to everyone who came along!
