They have taken American Bluegrass music and added their own British spin and individual influences to make what they call ‘British Bluegrass’. A band that proudly performs original music, they’ve played in both the local area and abroad, performing at Bluegrass and other music venues and festivals around the UK.

See you there!

Today 1st June Photography Club will be meeting at Aston Rowant National Nature Reserve for a golden hour photography session, capturing the landscape as the light becomes softer, warmer, and full of atmosphere.

We’ll explore how golden hour can transform ordinary scenes through:
•⁠ ⁠Warm natural light and long shadows
•⁠ ⁠Silhouettes and backlighting
•⁠ ⁠Texture, colour, and mood
•⁠ ⁠Composition using natural light direction
This session is all about slowing down, observing the changing light, and learning how timing can completely change a photograph.
Bring your camera (or phone), experiment with light, and capture the beauty of the evening glow.
