Throughout the system there are acknowledged difficulties; organisms that are “imperfect”\, “strange originals” and things suspended in “betwixt” categories: coral that is neither mineral nor plant\, fungi that “seem to want” essential parts\, zoophytes suspended between kingdoms. \n\n\n\nCreated using roughly a decade of different generative systems (2016–2025)\, each with its own unique aesthetic\, and trained on imagery drawn from Wilkins’ own descriptions\, it becomes almost a cabinet of curiosities\, even as the logic that links each image remains unstable or not immediately legible. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWork 2:+\n\n\n\n\nBetween Things displays Wilkins’ phrases as evidence of classification under pressure—instances where his system hesitates\, hedges\, and cannot decide. Handwritten text is rendered large and placed into the environment as a record of doubt\, but one that is only visible at 3am\, for an hour. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWork 3:+\n\n\n\n\nAn Infinity of Lists assembles Wilkins’ language itself\, showing every word used in his system\, first mapped to the hierarchy he imposed\, then gradually reframed through the logic of word2vec. \n\n\n\nOver the duration of the work the mapping shifts from the symbolic architecture of Wilkins’ invented order toward statistical relations in learned embedding space. The piece flutters between word\, image\, and symbol\, making visible how translation across systems and across time changes what counts as related. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nOpen daily.

Located in the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter\, it is designed to foster interdisciplinary collaboration while opening the humanities to a wider public through events\, performances\, and year-round programming. \n\n\n\nAt its heart are world-class venues including a concert hall\, theatre\, cinema\, recital spaces\, and galleries\, supported by flexible teaching and meeting facilities. A central atrium acts as a social hub\, blending academic life with informal gathering spaces\, cafés\, and exhibitions. More than a university facility\, the Centre functions as a civic cultural destination\, connecting scholarship with creative practice and strengthening Oxford’s wider cultural life. \n\n\n\nView venue information URL:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/event/anna-ridler-a-perfect-language-of-images/ LOCATION:Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities\, Radcliffe Observatory Quarter\, Woodstock Road\, Oxford\, OX2 6GG CATEGORIES:Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/anna-ridler-a-perfect-language-of-images-01-1920x1080-1.webp GEO:51.7604705;-1.2621148 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Schwarzman Centre for the Humanities Radcliffe Observatory Quarter Woodstock Road Oxford OX2 6GG;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Radcliffe Observatory Quarter\, Woodstock Road:geo:-1.2621148,51.7604705 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260502T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20270103T235959 DTSTAMP:20260624T204651 CREATED:20260429T140948Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260513T051015Z UID:10012335-1777680000-1799020799@theoxfordmagazine.com SUMMARY:Wonder of Birds Exhibition DESCRIPTION:Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Wonder of Birds Exhibition\n\n\n\nA major new exhibition at the Bodleian Libraries invites visitors to step into the remarkable world of birds\, exploring their beauty\, symbolism and fragility through art\, literature and science. \n\n\n\nWonder of Birds draws inspiration from The Book of Birds\, created by artist Jackie Morris and writer Robert Macfarlane. Both the exhibition and the book reflect on the decline of bird populations while celebrating their cultural and natural significance. \n\n\n\nCurated by Antonia Harrison\, the exhibition unfolds through seven themed sections – from nest and egg to feather\, flight and migration – combining original artwork and writing with treasures from the Bodleian’s extensive collections. \n\n\n\nVisitors can explore rare and historic material\, including previously unseen glass plate negatives by pioneering wildlife photographer Emma Louisa Turner\, alongside early nature photography from Richard Kearton and his brother Cherry. \n\n\n\nAlso on display are striking life-size illustrations from Birds of America by John James Audubon\, as well as a rare Great Auk egg on loan from Oxford University Museum of Natural History. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition also highlights birds’ enduring influence on culture\, featuring works such as Maya Angelou’s ‘Caged Bird’ and Percy Bysshe Shelley’s handwritten notes on ‘To a Skylark’. Global perspectives include imagery from The Book of the Fixed Stars and the poetic journey of The Conference of the Birds. \n\n\n\nEnhancing the experience\, a specially commissioned soundscape by sound artist Jason Singh immerses visitors in birdsong and natural environments\, while artist duo Daniel & Clara present an interactive ‘Rewilding Imagination field guide’. \n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n Wonder of Birds poster\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nFree admission\, no ticket required \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nSaturday 02 May 2026 to Sunday 03 January 2027 \n\n\n\nMonday to Friday from 9.00am to 5.00pmSaturday from 10.00am to 5.00pmSunday from 11.00am to 4.00pm \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nThe Treasury\, Weston Library URL:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/event/wonder-of-birds/ LOCATION:Bodleian Library – Old Library\, Broad Street\, Oxford\, OX1 3BG\, United Kingdom CATEGORIES:Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/Wonder-of-Birds.webp GEO:51.7545707;-1.2553262 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Bodleian Library – Old Library Broad Street Oxford OX1 3BG United Kingdom;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Broad Street:geo:-1.2553262,51.7545707 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260509T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260705T235959 DTSTAMP:20260624T204651 CREATED:20251228T131752Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260528T160603Z UID:10011899-1778284800-1783295999@theoxfordmagazine.com SUMMARY:We're Going On A Bear Hunt DESCRIPTION:We’re Going On A Bear Hunt\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout We’re Going On A Bear Hunt\n\n\n\nGet ready to swish\, splash and squelch your way through the new sensory trail to find the bear. \n\n\n\nThe much-loved picture book and award-winning animation will be brought to life through a series of interactive installations\, emulating the journey undertaken by the family at the heart of the story. \n\n\n\nPick up a trail booklet and follow in the characters’ footsteps to brave the elements.

Photo: Installation image of Kira Freije: Unspeak the Chorus\, The Hepworth Wakefield\, November 2025. Photo credit: Lewis Ronald\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Kira Freije: Unspeak the Chorus\n\n\n\nWalk amongst Kira Freije’s life-sized figures within an atmospheric and emotionally charged space\, where groupings suggest fragments of larger imagined narratives. \n\n\n\nModern Art Oxford presents Unspeak the Chorus\, the Turner Prize nominated solo exhibition by British artist Kira Freije (b.1985\, lives and works in London)\, featuring a new body of work co-commissioned by Modern Art Oxford and The Hepworth Wakefield. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition is Freije’s first major solo presentation in the UK\, bringing together around twenty hand-welded\, life-size metal figures\, with the artist expanding her practice through the inclusion of animals and textiles. The resulting work transforms the Upper Gallery into an immersive and emotionally charged environment in which human and animal worlds meet. \n\n\n\nFreije’s hand-welded metal figures\, arranged in intimate groupings\, suggest fragments of a story without ever resolving into a fixed narrative. United by a palpable sense of kinship\, the figures appear at once connected and self-contained – celebrating\, loving\, grieving\, guiding\, resting\, reaching and exhaling. While subtle interactions unfold between the sculptures\, Freije deliberately leaves the scene open\, inviting viewers to bring their own interpretations and emotional responses to the work. \n\n\n\nTo create her life-size sculptures\, Freije casts her own hands and feet in aluminium before constructing each figure from the ground up. Welding strips of steel together in a process akin to drawing an outline in space\, she builds skeletal forms that are at once delicate and robust. Faces\, or fragments of faces\, are cast from people close to her; fabric\, found materials and hand-blown glass elements are incorporated to complete materially layered scenes that combine strength and vulnerability. \n\n\n\nDeveloped in collaboration with lighting designer Matt Daw\, Unspeak the Chorus responds directly to the distinctive architecture of Modern Art Oxford’s Upper Gallery\, using atmospheric lighting and staging to heighten the emotional presence of the sculptures. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTickets for this exhibition can be purchased on the day of your visit at Modern Art Oxford’s Welcome Desk\, or pre-booked online via eventbrite \n\n\n\nBuy tickets \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nUpper Gallery 1 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Modern Art Oxford\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nModern Art Oxford is one of the UK’s leading contemporary art spaces.

Image: Olivia Plender\, title TBC\, 2026\, Embroidered textile © Olivia Plender\, courtesy Maureen Paley\, London\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Olivia Plender: Little Fennel’s Complaint\n\n\n\nDiscover the hidden history of women’s bodies\, medicine and resistance through Olivia Plender’s major new solo exhibition. \n\n\n\nModern Art Oxford is delighted to present Little Fennel’s Complaint\, a major solo exhibition by Olivia Plender (b. 1977\, London)\, exploring historic and ongoing inequalities in women’s healthcare\, from early modern witchcraft to contemporary debates on reproductive rights and medical authority. \n\n\n\nPlender developed the exhibition through research with leading Oxford institutions\, including the Bodleian Library\, Oxford Botanic Garden and John Radcliffe Hospital. Across embroidered textiles\, watercolours\, drawings\, mobiles\, and sound works\, she examines how women’s healthcare has been recorded\, classified\, and practised over time. \n\n\n\nThe exhibition combines new commissions\, existing works\, and historic manuscripts to highlight Plender’s multidisciplinary\, research-led practice. Installations trace shifting approaches to medicine and diagnosis\, opening with a presentation inspired by contemporary hospital architectures and waiting rooms. This builds on Plender’s ongoing project Our Bodies are Not the Problem (2021–)\, developed with the Glasgow Women’s Library\, exploring the links between ill health\, disability and structural inequalities. \n\n\n\nHistorical perspectives include Plender’s series Bringing Down the Flowers (2023–)\, watercolours in the style of genteel 19th-century flower paintings of plants historically used to induce abortion\, referencing orally transmitted reproductive knowledge. Three 17th-century manuscripts by astrologer-physician Richard Napier\, on loan from the Bodleian Library\, document consultations with women about their reproductive health\, alongside other ‘women’s problems’ such as ‘green sickness’\, a diagnosis formerly given only to unmarried women. \n\n\n\nDisplayed alongside these is Plender’s hanging mobile (2024) reflecting on humoral medicine (based on the ancient theory of the humours) and other systems of classification from the Renaissance to today. The exhibition culminates in a large-scale embroidered textile loosely based on scenes from the Malleus Maleficarum\, a notorious treatise on witchcraft written by Heinrich Kramer (1486)\, which portrayed women – particularly midwives and healers – as susceptible to demonic influence. \n\n\n\nBy placing historic manuscripts alongside contemporary artworks\, the exhibition asks who has the authority to define what is rational\, legitimate\, and true\, and explores how systems of knowledge shape lived experience while opening possibilities for alternative understandings. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTickets for this exhibition can be purchased on the day of your visit at Modern Art Oxford’s Welcome Desk\, or pre-booked online via eventbrite \n\n\n\nBuy tickets \n\n\n\nLocation: \n\n\n\nUpper Galleries 2 & 3 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Modern Art Oxford\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nModern Art Oxford is one of the UK’s leading contemporary art spaces.

Critical raw materials tend to have unique chemical properties which make them difficult to replace in technology. The UK government includes 34 raw materials on its designated critical list\, but lists vary from country to country. \n\n\n\n\n\n\naluminium\n\n\n\nantimony\n\n\n\nbismuth\n\n\n\nborates\n\n\n\ncobalt\n\n\n\ngallium\n\n\n\ngermanium\n\n\n\nhafnium\n\n\n\nhelium\n\n\n\nindium\n\n\n\niridium\n\n\n\niron\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nlithium\n\n\n\nmagnesite\n\n\n\nmagnesium\n\n\n\nmanganese\n\n\n\nnatural graphite\n\n\n\nnickel\n\n\n\nniobium\n\n\n\nphosphorus\n\n\n\nplatinum\n\n\n\nrare earth elements (REEs)\n\n\n\nrhenium\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nrhodium\n\n\n\nruthenium\n\n\n\nsilicon\n\n\n\nsodium\n\n\n\ntantalum\n\n\n\ntellurium\n\n\n\ntin\n\n\n\ntitanium\n\n\n\ntungsten\n\n\n\nvanadium\n\n\n\nzinc\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nPrices: \n\n\n\n\nEntry to the Museum is FREE and not ticketed.\n\n\n\nNo booking required.\n\n\n\nBooking is required for organisations/groups of more than ten people visiting on the same day.\n\n\n\n\nOpening hours: \n\n\n\n\nMonday to Sunday from 10.00am to 5.00pm\n\n\n\nLast entry at 4.45pm\n\n\n\nClosed on 24\, 25\, & 26 December\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility: \n\n\n\nPlease contact the friendly team at the museum by telephone (01865 272 950) or email (foh@oum.ox.ac.uk) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGallery\n\n\n\nClick images to expand \n\n\n\n\nBattery Ores\n\n\n\nBismuth\n\n\n\nCobalt\n\n\n\nDysprosium\n\n\n\nHalite\n\n\n\nREEs\n\n\n\n\nImage credit: Sarah Bell URL:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/event/34-the-critical-raw-materials-shaping-our-future/ LOCATION:Oxford University Museum of Natural History\, Parks Road\, Oxford\, Oxfordshire CATEGORIES:Exhibitions ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/34-the-critical-raw-materials-shaping-our-future-01-1920x1080-1.webp GEO:51.7586144;-1.2567354 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Oxford University Museum of Natural History Parks Road Oxford Oxfordshire;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Parks Road:geo:-1.2567354,51.7586144 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260619T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260913T235959 DTSTAMP:20260624T204651 CREATED:20260606T013253Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260617T045548Z UID:10012787-1781827200-1789343999@theoxfordmagazine.com SUMMARY:Appau Jnr Boakye-Yiadom: Modular Merger DESCRIPTION:Appau Jnr Boakye-Yiadom: Modular Merger.

Here\, music doesn’t just fill a space; it sits within it\, framed by towering maples\, historic avenues\, and the quiet geometry of the arboretum’s landscape design. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA concert stage carved into the woodland\n\n\n\nUnlike traditional festival sites\, Westonbirt doesn’t impose itself on the landscape. Instead\, the stage is carefully integrated into open glades within the arboretum\, with natural gradients forming gentle viewing terraces. \n\n\n\nAs evening falls\, light rigs cut through the tree line\, while the surrounding canopy absorbs the sound and softens it — creating a listening experience that feels unusually intimate\, even for headline acts. \n\n\n\nAudiences typically arrive early\, settling into the space with blankets\, chairs\, and picnics as the arboretum slowly shifts from daytime calm to concert energy. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Westonbirt atmosphere\n\n\n\nWhat sets Westonbirt apart in the Forest Live series is its mood. It feels less like a festival site and more like a shared gathering in a living landscape. \n\n\n\nExpect: \n\n\n\n\nLong golden-hour performances as daylight filters through the trees\n\n\n\nA relaxed\, picnic-led audience culture rather than tightly packed crowds\n\n\n\nFood and drink villages set discreetly within woodland clearings\n\n\n\nThe occasional pause where the forest itself becomes the backdrop between sets\n\n\n\nA sense of scale that is wide\, but never overwhelming\n\n\n\n\nThere is a natural rhythm to the evening here — one that follows the light\, the trees\, and the gradual transition into dusk. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMusic in a living collection\n\n\n\nThe arboretum itself is central to the experience. Westonbirt is not just a venue; it is a globally significant tree collection\, home to thousands of labelled specimens from around the world. \n\n\n\nThat context adds a subtle layer to the concerts: performances take place not in a generic outdoor field\, but within a carefully curated landscape of botanical and historical importance. \n\n\n\nIt’s a setting where conservation\, culture\, and entertainment overlap without competing for attention. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhy Westonbirt stands out\n\n\n\nAmong all Forest Live locations\, Westonbirt is often remembered for its contrast — polished touring acts set against a landscape that feels ancient\, quiet\, and deliberately uncommercial. \n\n\n\nIt is a venue where scale is measured differently: not by size of crowd\, but by depth of atmosphere. \n\n\n\nFor many\, a Forest Live concert here becomes less about a single performance and more about the experience of being in the arboretum at night — when the trees\, light\, and music briefly share the same space. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForestry England Westonbirt Arboretum 2026 line-up\n\n\n\n\nWednesday 24 June: Fatboy Slim (with Sally C + DJ Paulette)\n\n\n\nThursday 25 June: Deacon Blue (with Lightning Seeds + Shay O’Dowd)\n\n\n\nFriday 26 June: UB40 ft Ali Campbell (with Bitty McLean + Reggae Roast ft MC Horseman)\n\n\n\nSaturday 27 June: Rick Astley (with The Lottery Winners + Deco)\n\n\n\nSunday June 28 June: Richard Ashcroft (with Tom Meighan + Apollo Junction + DJ Wayne)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGetting there\n\n\n\n\n\nBy car+\n\n\n\n\nAll Westonbirt Arboretum Forest Live car parks open at 4:30pm (except on Thursday and Friday evenings when they open at 6:00pm). \n\n\n\nParking costs £11 per car in advance. If you plan on arriving by car\, a parking space must be booked in advance\, alongside admission tickets. Book a parking space with Ticketmaster. \n\n\n\nAccessible Blue Badge Parking can be booked online (same charges apply).  \n\n\n\nSubject to availability\, limited parking may be available on the day at a cost of £20\, payable on arrival (card payments only).  \n\n\n\nThose attending concerts from the north and north east (such as from the M5 J13\, Stroud\, Cirencester and Gloucester) will be parked in Westonbirt School grounds postcode GL8 8QG opposite the arboretum with a controlled pedestrian crossing and an approximate 1 mile walk to the arena along the level and well surfaced Mitchell Drive\, through the heart of the beautiful Arboretum. This is to allow better traffic flow\, particularly when you leave the site once the concert has ended. \n\n\n\nCustomers with additional access needs should see venue access information \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy coach+\n\n\n\n\nTravel in a greener way with our return coach service to Forest Live at Westonbirt Arboretum. Advance booking is essential. See ticket link above. \n\n\n\nPick up points TBA \n\n\n\nAfter the concert\, you are required to be at the pick-up point within 30 mins of the concert ending. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy public transport+\n\n\n\n\nThe nearest train station is at Kemble (Swindon to Gloucester line)\, 12 miles away. \n\n\n\nOnly pre-booked taxis will be allowed on site\, we do not have a taxi rank of cars waiting for passengers. Make sure you’ve considered your return journey before arriving and book in advance. \n\n\n\nPlease use the designated pick up point to meet with your taxi or lift home. Do not arrange to meet them on the main road. This is dangerous due to high speed traffic at night and would have an adverse impact on our neighbours. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nAccessibility: \n\n\n\nTo book a personal assistant ticket\, or viewing platform or accessible grass viewing area places\, request an approved account in advance \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGallery URL:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/event/forest-live-at-westonbirt-arboretum/ LOCATION:Forestry England Westonbirt Arboretum\, Westonbirt Arboretum\, Tetbury\, Gloucestershire\, GL8 8QS CATEGORIES:Festivals & Fairs ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://theoxfordmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/forest-live-westonbirt-arboretum-01-1920x1080-1.webp GEO:51.639295;-2.15818 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Forestry England Westonbirt Arboretum Westonbirt Arboretum Tetbury Gloucestershire GL8 8QS;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Westonbirt Arboretum:geo:-2.15818,51.639295 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/London:20260625T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/London:20260627T235959 DTSTAMP:20260624T204651 CREATED:20260519T231828Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260624T044725Z UID:10012564-1782345600-1782604799@theoxfordmagazine.com SUMMARY:Sherlock Holmes and the Napoleon of Crime DESCRIPTION:Sherlock Holmes and the Napoleon of Crime\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Sherlock Holmes and the Napoleon of Crime \n\n\n\nMagdalen College School presents \n\n\n\nA new adaptation by Alex Thomas \n\n\n\nBased on the novel by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle \n\n\n\nMagdalen College School returns with this electrifying production of Sherlock Holmes and the Napoleon of Crime\, performed by its pupils and featuring original songs\, spectacular action\, and a healthy dose of mystery. \n\n\n\nLondon\, 1883.

This ain’t just a show\, it’s a proper good time that’ll leave you buzzing with joy. \n\n\n\nFor 30 years\, they’ve been taking their infectious tunes to over 40 countries and continuously proving why they are the UK’s No.1 jive and swing band. They effortlessly transition from smooth-as-butter ballads to rip-roaring rhythm & blues\, with a nod to the raw\, foot-stomping roots of rock ‘n’roll. \n\n\n\nThey’ve played for the Queen\, packed out the Royal Albert Hall\, and made history as the first band to get to the Britain’s Got Talent finals. With 250 gigs a year\, they’ve got a knack for turning any crowd into a dancing\, cheering frenzy. \n\n\n\nYou’ve probably caught their rendition of the Morecambe and Wise classic Bring Me Sunshine – a banger with nearly 4 million YouTube views that’s so upbeat a U.S. doctor prescribed it to chase away the blues. \n\n\n\nIt’s been all over Strictly Come Dancing\, Netflix\, an American cop show and recently comedian Miranda Hart even declared it one of her favourite songs and stated on BBC Radio 3\, “The Jive Aces will get me up off the floor and make me lose any self-consciousness and dance!” \n\n\n\nTheir latest album\, Keeping The Show On The Road\, is stuffed with crowd favourites that hit No.1 on Mike Read’s Heritage Chart and got spins on BBC and Boom Radio. Those tracks\, plus their classic hits\, will have you moving from the first note. \n\n\n\nJoining the party is the sensational Noelle Vaughn\, a jazz siren who’s got the UK scene buzzing. With a voice like velvet and a stage presence that’ll stop you in your tracks\, Noelle swings from sultry ballads to red-hot jazz standards with ladles of charm. She’s wowed crowds at Ronnie Scott’s and lit up Eamonn Holmes’ 60th birthday bash. \n\n\n\nFresh off her acclaimed albums Bewitched and Too Darn Hot\, with originals co-written with Amy Winehouse’s guitarist\, Noelleâ’s smooth style channels Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan but with a spark that’s all her own. \n\n\n\nThese guys and gals are the real deal. They’ve shared stages with legends like Van Morrison\, John Travolta\, and Priscilla Presley\, Jamie Cullum\, Toto and Status Quo\, and nabbed awards like the City of Derry International Music Award and the Variety Club of Great Britain Award for their music and charity work. \n\n\n\nTheir music videos?
