After many months of trying, it looks like we might finally be playing some gigs in our home-town of Horsham, West Sussex. Hurrah!
First up, Ben and Sarah are playing two acoustic gigs:
- The Anchor Hotel (used to be Bar Vin) on Sunday 3rd July
- The Tanners Arms on Thursday 21st July
We're hoping to bring the full band to The Tanners Arms in August. It's a great place so get down there when you can! We're also excited about the Horsham Music Festival which is taking place on Sunday 4th September. We're waiting to hear if there is room for us on that day.
Finally, we'll also be returing to our second home of Fareham in Hampshire on Friday 26th August. We'll be back at The Brass Monkey with some special guests...

Back to The Brass Monkey
Happy New Year friends and fans of Singfield!
Our gig at The Brass Monkey back in October was great fun and well supported by Ben's work friends (they even brought signs to wave). In fact we enjoyed it so much we're going back. We're playing there next week - on Friday 21st January. We'll be on at about 9pm playing for 45 minutes. Also appearing that night are rock covers band Mojo Dollar. It should be great, and as it's free entry it's a perfect night out even if your bank account has that Janaury "not-much-money" feel to it.
In other news we are also booked to go into the studio in February to record a few tracks. It'll be our first "proper" recording since 2007, and our first with Sarah and Dr. Nick. We'll let you know the details once we have them - at the moment we're busy rehearsing and choosing which songs to record!
Hope to see you next week!

The Big Gig 2010
We're not playing The Big Gig 2010 as the organisers like to refresh the line-up each year. However, if you're still interested in going then visit www.natsnoise.co.uk.
A review of a year
So what have we actually been up to in the year since we updated the website?
Well, first up we played The Big Gig 2009. This was our biggest show to date - over 300 people at Ferneham Hall in Fareham. We really enjoyed it and felt it was a very successful evening. There's some video of us here:
Singfield at The Big Gig 2009
Ben spent the first part of 2010 writing some new songs (as well as going to work, looking after his daughter, drinking too much with Dom & Sarah, etc, etc). These included "Stagger Man Blues", "Stand Up And Say", "Kick Back" and "The Best Way To Spend Our Time". We're pleased to say that the band mastered these pretty quickly, although they didn't do a very good job of learning the names.
Then in June we played the first ever Domfest. Unfortunately Nick The Drummer couldn't make it as he was having a baby (well, his wife was), so instead we did an acoustic set with a guest spot from Ben's brother and ex-Singfield member Bongo Joe. The only other problem was that Ben had food-poisoning, so wasn't doing a great job of standing up, moving around, eating, etc. Still, it was good fun! Have a look:

Then in August we returned to The Armstrong Gun for the first time in three years. We played a full set and even played our new songs. Even though the band still haven't learnt the titles yet...
