Wow, this sounds excellent!

 

If you'd be interested in live music, To The Moon could probably help out (providing this wasnt a problem for Nora who is organising - and has booked TTM - for Green Lanes Festival on the 18th. :)

We are at www.reverbnation.com/tothemoon if you are interested.

 

However, if this is not to your taste, I could certainly offer to perform sound engineering duties for the event, or possibly help with another arts based event :)
