The MoonJets
Bury Village Hall 8pm

Sponsored by Surgipath
A welcome return for our very own Indie Rockers after their memorable
gig at last year’s festival.
The MoonJets formed in 2006 wanting to change the face of British
guitar music. Taking influences from the British R’n’B
bands of the 60s and modern day Indie Rock’n’Roll, the
band has a unique sound that is stirring up excitement around the
country. The MoonJets have just finished recording their second
EP, Life On The Lilo, the follow-up to their debut EP Into The Night,
which proved to be very popular with their audiences.
The MoonJets’ first single, Indie Girl, peaked at number
two in the Mod Radio UK charts in 2006.

City of London
Chamber Choir
Thomas a Beckett Church 7.30pm
Sponsored by Peter H Gammons
Conducted by Christopher Field
with Emma Gibbins (organ)
The City of London Chamber Choir was founded in 1998 by a group
of friends who had previously sung together in the University of
London Chamber Choir and wished to continue to have the opportunity
to sing in cathedrals and other major churches on an ad hoc basis.
In April 2008, they will be returning to sing the services at Westminster
Abbey for the fourth time and, in July, will be visiting Brecon
and Llandaff cathedrals. The choir are looking forward to their
return visit to Ramsey to sing in the Arts Festival.
