Latest news
Posted on December 3rd, 2010 by adminGreetings one and all
It’s been an interesting week for both the Shelf & the Deltas and it
looks like this weekend will be interesting as well – this Sunday
5th December at the *Music Palace **159a Tottenham Lane **Crouch End**
London N8 9BT*
*Elephant Shelf is on with Chris Farlowe & the Norman Beaker Band, the
evening will also feature a short set by Jack Shay & Midnight 36.*
*The show starts at 8pm – here’s a link to find out more *
http://www.liveblues.info/home/2010/10/24/crouch-end-winter-hooley/
A couple of other things to mention – Tonight, Friday DELTA LADIES
are Tony Bell’s guests at *Brooke’s Blues Bar
*http://www.brooksbluesbar.co.uk/
final night jam session. We’ll probably get to play a tune or two
and drink lots of real ale and get highly entertained by Tony & Ann
Bell.
Saturday night 4th December Elephant have a very long standing
engagement at *The Froth and Elbow* *(183 High St S) Pub, 183 High St,
Dunstable LU6 3SJ*
That’s it really, we escaped from snow covered France on Tuesday –
nearly got stranded on the M25 – what a nightmare that was – why
are the French so much better at dealing with snow than us…but never
mind we had a fantastic Saturday night over in Bezannes close to Reims
and got to play on stage with *AWEK* www.awekblues.com
<http://www.awekblues.com/>
in front of 800
That’s all f’now
Love
Vicky. Diana, Terry, Rosie & Robbie

Posted on November 24th, 2010 by adminGreetings one and all
Well it’s a different sort of week for the denizens of Shelf & Delta Ladyland this week -Thursday 25th November we DELTA LADIES are playing at BEYOND THE VALLEY STORE & GALLERY: 2 Newburgh Street (off Carnaby Street)
London W1F 7RD

The show starts at 6.30pm and this is the line up -
VIKTORIA MODESTA www.viktoriamodesta.com
KRIS DI ANGELIS www.soundcloud.com/krisdiangelis
DELTA LADIES www.deltaladies.com
Ada Zanditon tells us that her very favourite song is ‘Willow Tree’ from Elephant Shelf’s album, Many of you won’t be too aware of the acoustic roots side of the Shelf so here’s a link to that very tune ‘Willow Tree’.
Apart from that Vicky & Diana plus great uncle Terry of the Shelf are off to France this weekend – there’s a festival ‘Blues en Bezannes’ we’re going to see and meet the top French Band AWEK – www.awekblues.com – it looks as if we might be accorded the honour of getting on stage to play with them as well which would be great; they are a highly recommended act in classic Chicago style.
Much love to one and all
