At East West Promotions, we have had the privilege to have staged some of the worlds most talented & famous singer songwriters/ musicians to appear in the ‘relatively’ small town of Bedford. From the amazing J.D Souther, writer of many hits of the Eagles including "Best of My Love", "Victim of Love", "Heartache Tonight", "New Kid in Town" & "How Long", through to Venice from Venice Beach California. Venice have played with almost everyone in the business from Jackson Browne, Crosby Stills & Nash through to Michael Jackson & have also appeared on the Simpson’s with Kipp Lennon’s amazing vocals. In addition, we are the first to draw the true Champions of Americana, with acts like Deer Tick, Caitlin Rose, Richmond Fontaine, Chuck Prophet, Blue Rodeo, Vetiver and many more upcoming similar high profile talented artistes.
This is what Andy Cabic front-man of Vetiver had to say after their recent show at the Bedford Civic.
“We had a blast. I must admit, sitting in the green room prior I had my suspicions. Walking around outside beforehand, seeing hardly anyone around, I feared the worst. But that room is great, the sound on stage was excellent and the audience surpassed most of the crowds we’ve played to so far on our run across Europe. Bedford turned out to be one of the best shows of this tour. So thanks to your friends and those who came without even knowing what they were getting into, much like we did!”
