Brass, rhythms and beats rock St James....

Dat Bass swapped London town for St James for a gig featuring their own brand of brass band hip-hop. This ten-piece outfit rocked the party with their energetic take of beats and rhymes.

This gig followed a successful run of events promoted by Guernsey's most stately venue. St James is beginning to establish itself as a versatile venue and the momentum is building.

Various tweaks have been made along the way with a bar now being a feature at the back of the hall. This reduces any vacant space and keeps the punters who want drink involved with the performances.

The one area that needs work is the acoustics of the large building. Balancing the sound must be a nightmare job for the techs. I've been told that there is a plan to try and sort out the sound... if that comes about I think we are going to be treated to many more memorable nights at St J.
