Lulo Reinhardt Project - Cromarty Old Brewery - Mon 22 Nov 2010

As expected, Lulo Reinhardt Project's gig at The Old Brewery in Cromarty on Mon 22 Nov 2010 has now officially sold-out

Lulo Reinhardt Project - update on first UK tour - Nov 14 to Dec 4 2010

Lulo and the band have had a fantastic response from the first few gigs of their first UK tour which began on Sun 14 Nov at Farnham Maltings in Surrey.

After the Farnham gig venue programmer Chris Maddocks said: "What a fantastic gig last night – 2 standing ovations at the end. Brilliant!"

At Comberton (nr Cambridge; Mon 15 Nov), programmer Richard Brown said: "In two years working here I've never seen anything like it - they got a 5-minute long standing ovation. If the band hadn't eventually left the stage, they'd be there yet!"

At Birmingham's Kitchen Garden venue (Tue 16 Nov and from which a fuller comment is expected), it was just: "Great gig!"

At Edinburgh's Queen's Hall on Fri 19 Nov I was able to see for myself why these earlier comments were unexceptional(!) - not a whole audience on its feet here, but probably about half anyway. I'm waiting quite eagerly to see the review in The Herald tomorrow or Tuesday.

There's been a rejig of the band's visit to Sheffield on Mon 29 Nov where the venue (Boardwalk) is in some limbo while lawyers pour over its transfer to a new owner. In fact we've got two new gigs to replace this one ...

Our enormously grateful thanks to these promoters who have taken on these very last minute gigs. Please support them if you're in Sheffield and/or Leeds.

Finally, if you're around the London area, then please do go to the band's last gig of the tour in The Jazz Cafe on Sat 4 Dec and make it a gig to remember. Sales are on the slight side just now and more are needed. You won't regret it, believe me! Just tell everyone you know in the London area to get in touch with the Jazz Cafe box office ASAP!
