Landguard Fort, Felixstowe

We have played some interesting venues in our time, and this has definitely been one of them. Landguard Fort is over 400 years old, a Grade 1 listed building, which played a big part in defending the East Coast from invaders. We were invited to play by the Suffolk Amnesty and the idea was to perform in the grand arena, but the weather wasn’t kind, to put it mildly, and we ended up inside the fort, in one of the beautiful, cave-like rooms, which someone remarked was like the famous Cavern Club in Liverpool! The event was sold out and the audience was marvellous from the off. Local uke players came too, which we always like, and it was great to chat to some of them. Thank you, Amnesty, and we hope to see you again!
