Special

Lofthouse MD, Andrew Whitaker told 4BR: "This concert promises to be very special indeed. I have known James Shepherd for a number of years now and played under him in the Jayess Band back in the 1980s.

The group is still very special and we are privileged to be hosting their first come back concert. For anyone who hasn't already seen them in action I can promise a great performance not to be missed!"
