Glasgow West End Festival


Look this festival up on youtube and flickr - Juba do Leao and the Glasgow West End Festival 2011.

To be part of something bigger than yourself is possibly one of the best feelings you can experience. Having said that, I am high, high up emotionally from the weekend we have spent in Glasgow (I'm not explaining it and should do and will do, but wanted to get something down quickly) - I love standing on a hill top, dancing, hearing a song sung from the soul, the sound of the sea in the evening, the smell of wet gardens and roses and orange blossom and bread and a foreign place and....but right now, today, the feeling of belonging is strong.

Juba do Leao - Oldham Gig


JUBA DO LEAO GIG!!!
Hurrah!! We have a gig!! I dance with a Band run by the great Holly Prest who play North Eastern Brazilian rhythms with Holly's own take on the beats. There are drums, other Brazilian percussion instruments, guitars, violins, beautiful, haunting, sexy voices, and inventive, magical, wow-y dancers. And the band are performing on Saturday in Oldham town centre. If you're anywhere, be there!
It doesn't matter if the sun shines or not, this will make you warm and smile.. I can't wait.
