LOCAL LADS TO KICK OFF MUSIC FESTIVAL

Local band The Jimi Saville Experience have been chosen to open the annual Mudbath music festival in August after recording a session for the Steve Macaque show.

The band have announced that they will be performing on the Paul Daniels Stage from 8.50am until 9am on Friday, August 24.

Brothers Benji and Leo Bongwater, (pictured), of Swansdike, along with Dick Upright of Cheetingham and Bram Toker of Froghill make up the group which rock newspaper The Enemy described as sounding like "the bastard love child of Napalm Death and Sheena Easton".

Speaking to the Observer yesterday, Benji said that they were all really excited about being chosen but it still seemed a bit unreal.

"We are all really excited about being chosen but it still seems a bit unreal,” he said.

The lads will be playing in front of tens of music lovers at the festival, which will also feature the Ork Dick Monkeys, Babystumbles, Kaiser Chimps and Amy Winerack.
