Get you tickets for a Rat Pack night to remember

Make sure you get your tickets for a night of easy listening music that will be hard to beat — and its free if you are an Elliott Brass customer.

Rat Pack
  Elliott Brass will be providing all the entertainment — as good as anything these lads could come up with...

BrassToff is calling out to all Elliott Brass customers. Anyone who has purchased an Elliott instrument will get a free ticket to their special black tie 'Rat Pack Night' with the Elliott Brass ensemble on Friday 30th June.

Black ties and gowns

The Elliott Brass Ensemble (EBE) will be back in Culcheth to host the special Rat Pack themed evening. It's a black tie event, so make sure you dig out your black bow ties and ball gowns.

EBE have previously produced charity concerts in aid of UK bands to help raise finances, as well as being the featured stars of other concerts to benefit St Anne's Hospice and the RNCM Trombone ensemble in memory of Paul's much loved friend Adrian Morris.

Easy listening classics

This time the evening will consist of music in true Frank Sinatra and the easy listening gang style such as 'In the Mood', 'Sing, Sing, Sing' and 'Moondance' as well as classic jazz, blues and swing.

Socialise

Ensemble founder Paul Andrews told 4BR: "There has not yet been a concert where the audience isn't screaming for an encore, especially at our last Retro disco themed concert!

We tend to do three thirds rather than two halves to encourage everyone to socialise and get a drink between the intervals."
