Jess has had so many offers of solo gigs that clash with Past & Present dates
I'm not surprised, everyone has been very impressed with her
she also has plans for a female duo - 07791 782 578

and here's what I was doing before Past & Presently
Louise & I have been Past & Present duo for 14 years
and we've done over 700 gigs together
but now Louise has moved to Dubai
our final gig at the Dog & Pheasant Ashton on Saturday 22nd April 2017 was amazing
a packed pub and fabulous atmosphere
all our regulars came out to say goodbye to Louise
and lots of friends travelled to the Top Dog from other areas
Louise did encore after encore after 2 & a half hours non-stop
(look at the time on that clock)
Lots of love and best wishes Lou, we'll all miss you
Our first gig as Past & Present was in August 2002
I met Louise Shufflebotham in the karaoke years when she was a teenager
---
Easter Sunday at the Stock Dove Romiley went well
a fantastic turn-out for our last local gig
---
Another great gig at the Nursery Inn Heaton Norris
A full house for Louise's last time
lots of friends in the hallway who couldn't get into the room.
We've been playing at the Nursery for the past 8 years, this was our 57th time
and we've made so many friends who came out to say goodbye to Louise.
A really fantastic night. Thank you so much everybody.

Another great gig at the Crown Bredbury
We've been playing at the Crown for the past 4 years, this was our 32nd time
