Musical talent topping up at The Apple Tree

On Tuesday 2nd January singer songwriters fought their way to the Apple Tree in West Green, Crawley to show off their talents.

The brave and intrepid (and some possibly a bit insane) members of the Crawley’s music community turned out in artic conditions to perform at The Apple Tree’s singer songwriter night. The first to arrive was Danny Dangerously and Rory Flynn closely followed by the guys who collectively make up the rock band “Soma” Ryan Howlett, Tim Rowell and Luke Ogden. Crawley music veteran Ken Birch provided the P.A. system. Kenalso played for the crowd.

After a number of inspired performances, which were recorded by Jonathan Head. Carl is currently setting up a MySpace page where you will be able to see these great performances.

It was decided to bring the night to an early conclusion in the face of deteriorating weather conditions, allowing people to get home safely.

It turns out the band named “Soma” featuring Ryan Howlett, Tim Rowell and Luke Ogden are in search of a new band name and are looking for inspiration from the people of Crawley. If you have any suggestions, please send them to editor@crawleyhappytimes.co.uk.

The next singer songwriter night is Tuesday 2nd February. If you missed this one, put a date in your diary.
