07.01.2022 New ripper tune from Simon Astley... "Make It"

07.01.2022 Performers and technical crews were the first impacted and will probably be the last ones able to work normally once covid-19 is under control. They contribute so much to our mental health, to communities, to our culture, and to a whole entertainment ecosystem. Let's hope that our politicians ensure the viability of this sector and all the wonderful people that are part of it.

04.01.2022 FOKI stalwart organiser and performer Troy Smith (aka Rusty Falcon) has a revitalised band on the hustings. They rocked FOKI, bided their covid 19 time but are finally able to hit the stage again. Check them out over the coming weeks!

02.01.2022 BOO SEEKA (FOKI 2016)... "Take A Look"... fantastic new single... for an amazing musical community. Enjoy y'all. https://youtu.be/iHUEaT5TBFY

01.01.2022 Look after yourself everyone.
