When you think of an EP launch, what do you think? Probably something intimate, maybe at Jam Cafe<\/a><\/strong> or a similar size venue? Well, how about an EP launch at the humongous space that is the Albert Hall<\/a><\/strong>, with two sisters, a full live band, a fifty children choir and a fifty strong youth orchestra? Yeah, it sounds crazy, but that\u2019s exactly what THE HARGREAVES<\/a><\/strong> are doing on May 1st, and they\u2019re doing it all in the name of charity!
\n
\nFor those unfamiliar, THE HARGREAVES<\/a><\/strong> are two sisters; STEPHANIE HARGREAVES<\/a><\/strong>, and ELENA HARGREAVES<\/a><\/strong>, who have both made quite a name for themselves in their solo careers. This venture however, sees the girls come together to bring their unique blend of Pop, Soul and Folk to a huge crowd.
\n
\nThey won\u2019t be alone though, oh no! As mentioned, the sisters will be joined on stage by THE ROBIN HOOD YOUTH ORCHESTRA<\/a><\/strong>, as well as an incredible choir of fifty children from Milford Academy<\/strong>, which we\u2019re sure will help make this a very epic performance!
\n
\nThe entire project, buildup and all is being documented by FDSC students at Confetti-ICT; and they\u2019ve already gone and made a snazzy promo video, which you can find HERE<\/a><\/strong>.
\n
\nTheir intention is to inspire the children of today, and make them realise you don\u2019t have to be a manufactured popstar to make beautiful music. The duo want to open up a whole new world to these children, and introduce them to the creative industries in a new, exciting way.
\n
\nAs such, all money raised from the launch will be donated to the Notts Education Trust<\/strong>, a charity providing children with some incredible creative opportunities outside of mainstream education. The girls are helping towards this, and you can expect all merchandise, stage design and more to have been designed by the children they have been working with.
\n
\nThere\u2019s also some cracking support on the night. First, we have THE GOLDEN TROUBADOURS<\/a><\/strong>, who will be opening the night with their blissful melodies, heartfelt lyrics and HUGE sound. We reckon they\u2019ll kick the night off to an awesome start.
\n
\nJOY MUMFORD<\/a><\/strong> will also be supporting the sisters, she went down a treat as she supported the sisters at their London preview show, and we reckon her beautiful, soulful Folk will set the tone just right for THE HARGREAVES<\/a><\/strong> performance.
\n
\nThis is a huge event, and it\u2019s great to see local musicians be able to give so much back to the community. We have no doubt that everyone involved will help make this one incredible night, and now all they need is you! May 1st, get your tickets<\/a>, put it in your diaries, and get on down to one of the biggest nights that the Nottingham scene has had this year!
