On Tuesday the 13th of December, we held our Christmas Artist night. We decked the Hub out with fairy lights and some Christmas decorations and our team had been busy baking to provide some refreshments for our guests.Sam and Hannah started the festivities as they set the scene and introduced Holly Powers who sang three of her lovely originals.
Following Holly was The Ukes of Hazard, a group of four beautiful girls, who did a cover of Men of Snow by Ingrid Michaelson and Last Christmas by Wham!
After a short break, we had Meredith playing her first Burnt Out Records gig. She did a cover of White Christmas on the ukulele and then her wonderful Christmas original which has quite memorable lyrics.
Sam followed on the guitar with his take on River by Joni Mitchell, Ho Hey by The Lumineers and Holes by Passenger.
We had Hannah who sang an original she co-wrote and performed with Anna and then Hannah finished off her set with covers of Bird by Billie Martin and Can’t Help Falling in Love with You by Elvis Presley.Jasmine and Craig finished off our Christmas night with Kids by MGMT, Seaside by The Kooks and finished the night on a Christmas high with Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas.
As a school we are raising money for the charity Social Bite and all of our profits from the artist night went to them. We are happy to have helped them along the way with £330.
It was a fantastic night and we have so many talented artists and musicians in our team. We’d like to thank everyone who came along and to our team for doing such a good job on the night.
It has been a great year for Burnt Out Records and we hope next year will be just as great! Look out for a very exciting announcement in the new year!
