This is the sight of The A52s trying to locate the historic mining village of Bonsall.
The band are madly trying to remember the songs they knew so well just before Christmas. So many sherries…..
Hope they get their act together as they are to play a massive gig in the Barley Mow in Bonsall on Saturday [...]

Video of the Church Fete

Here is some footage from the Church Fete last Sunday. Didn’t we have a lovely time….and wasn’t the weather kind. Great to see the village out in force practising for Wakes!

Our St George’s Day Celebrations

The Parwich Odd Fellows set in motion a very successful day. A big thank you to everyone, including the organisers, especially Mick Edge without whose vision, ideas and determination, the day would not have happened, all the helpers and those who came along and supported the day.
The morning’s march by the Odd Fellows and the Derbyshire [...]

The lads still haven’t found their way to Parwich Village Green.
This photo shows them popping into an Aldi in Barcelona to ask directions. A sultry individual with a curly lip showed them where to find the frozen peas and explained the secret of rock ‘n’ roll.
Time is running out for the fab three. They better [...]

Looks like the lads have headed to the ‘coast’ for some of that surfin’ inspiration. Carsington Water sure provides great entertainment!
Good news though, they’ve torn themselves away from the golden sands, the white tops and a cool surfer chick called Debbie. They may be heading back our way. You never know though, their sense of direction [...]

…..and they’re off!
Following months of practice, the A52s have mastered their new tune and are now ready to play it in public. Offers to headline Glastonbury have been turned down in favour of the much prized afternoon slot at the Parwich Church Fete, Sunday 26th April.
The tour bus has broken down so the band have [...]

The A52s packed the pub last night with their Christmas gig, with people clustering round the doorways unable to get into the bar. An excellent evening; hopefully there will be lots more. Thank you to John FS for these two photos:

This evening the A52s burst upon the Parwich music scene with a sophisticatedly raw blend of rock, folk and almost anything else you could think of … The Legion Hall was probably way above its audience limit for this new sound whose edge was so cutting you could hear it through much of the village [...]

If you took a Tuesday evening stroll along Smithy Lane this Summer, you may have heard the sound of clinking beer bottles, manic strumming, improvised accordions and uncontrollable laughter. This, ladies and gentlemen, was the sound of The A52s creating music. In the first week, the band learned some notes. In the second week, they [...]
