It was amazing to be back at Cheltenham Jazz Festival this year! We had a great time supplying backline across 12 stages, as well as providing for multiple individual acts, and tech support on site.
A big shout out to our boys in the warehouse, dealing with the returns of Cheltenham Jazz Festival, Sounds From The Other City, Spinfest over at The Oast House, and multiple others.
Then getting prepared for FOCUS Wales, where we're providing backline across 10 stages.
Brilliant to see so many live events back with a bang!

We’ve been a bit quiet over the past year, from being restricted by covid to suddenly inundated with demand for equipment and crew.
We thought we’d get into the Christmas spirit by sharing some of our and customers’ favourite bits of kit over on our instagram in the lead up to Christmas! 🎄 🎁 🎄 ☃️
