North Devon Music Group gets off to a great start with it's first Sofa Session

Some very crowd pleasing specially selected music was played at the St Annes Sofa Session on October 27th to an audience made up of venue reps, promoters, open mic hosts and music lovers. The musicians said they really loved having the opportunity to play at St Annes Arts Centre in the heart of Barnstaple and having the bonus of quality sound engineering provided by music legends Doc Honk (Kev Teague) and Brain Tucker

The very talented young musician Wren Frost stated on facebook "Tonight was absolutely amazing, wonderful venue, fantastic people and an incredible amount of support and opportunities given to me for the future"

Every musician playing had professional shots taken by Josh Stevenson who offered his services for free. The musicians who played have already grabbed and uploaded these to their facebook pages - check out Mama Says’s facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/mamasaysnorthdevon.

Feedback from those who attended this free music networking event was really positive with their every need provided for by the organisers Dion Sears and Lucy Betts including a very comfy sofa, home-made brownies and a well stocked bar thanks to Clearwater Brewery. Beverley Eastwood who’d come up from Exeter stated “Lovely event with lovely people at a lovely venue! .....ooh and some lovely chocolate brownies”

Dion Sears and Lucy Betts, the founder members of the North Devon Music Network, were so pleased with the turnout, outcomes and feedback for the event that they are planning to hold another Sofa Sess in the new year.
