On Saturday 20th August 2022, the famous Jacaranda Club in Liverpool echoed to the Sound of the very gifted alternative Rock Group Gustaffson supremely led by talented Actor/Songwriter and lead singer Andrew Gower as they celebrated the launch of their debut E.P. “JACARANDA”. The packed audience, mainly Andrew’s family, friends and group supporters including Craig Potter, Producer from ELBOW, were treated to a live performance of all four tracks on the E.P. I managed to have a chat with Andrew prior to them going on stage, highlighting the contribution of Haydock MVC on a couple of the tracks. We provided backing track inserts on “Kingdom” and “Night People”. Andrew very kindly acknowledged the important contribution from Dan Craddock and the guys from Haydock MVC. I am proud of my very long association with Haydock MVC and the very progressive attitude to modern day Tenor/Bass Chorus. Under Dan’s leadership, we are experimenting quite successfully with confident Acapella singing and are always willing to expand on our wide and varied repertoire. Check out the E.P. on Spotify, Apple Music etc… It’s worthy of a good listen. The guys from Gustaffson are really going places, as are Haydock MVC of course! Young tenor/ bass enthusiasts are always welcome here at Haydock.

Big thanks to John for that report, and as he says, if any young tenor or bass singers are interested in seeing what we’re about, the singing workshop is only a short time away now, so get in touch at committee@haydockmvc.com for more information, and to secure your place!
