Something in the Air
Saturday 26 May, 7.30pm
Tickets £10 Tickets £18
Created by Michael John McCarthy and
Martin O’Connor. Produced with Red
Bridge Arts. Following a sold out series of shows in
2017 with “Midnight at The Oasis”, Spatz
& Co Showband return to the stage for
their 2018 extravaganza “Something in
the Air …..”
Turntable started when MJ McCarthy
and his Great Aunt Kathleen – 55 years
his senior – connected over a stack of
vinyl. Since then the Turntable team have
toured her record case around Scotland,
inviting listeners of all ages to investigate
its contents whilst reflecting on the
importance of music in their lives.
Performed by Michael John, Turntable
features music, stories, audience
interaction and guest speakers. The
performance explores memory, identity,
family and most importantly of all, the joy
of music.
'The show will make you smile, laugh,
feel moved but most of all put a tap in
your foot and a song in your heart.' *****
Edinburgh Reporter
Spatz & Co’s bandleader and vocalist
Roy Mac says “Our shows span 60 years
of music making, from the 1930s to the
1990s. From Broadway and London
West End to radio and TV, we bring
together iconic Big Band sounds.
Get ready to enjoy R & B, Swing, Latin,
Pop, Jazz, Rat Pack and American
Songbook- all with a Spatz & Co twist!
The audience never knowing what to
expect next – it’s all part of the fun!”
Spatz & Co have individually worked with
Elton John, The Drifters, Deep Purple
and many, many more. Get ready for a
great night of music!

Afghanistan: 2009.
Ryan is there to see the world, learn a trade,
get a life. Training's complete, combat
is a buzz. But on one particular hot and
desperate tour of duty, Ryan sees things he
can’t talk about, to anyone. And when he
returns home, the trouble really begins.
A Brave Face explores Post-Traumatic
Stress, an unseen and often unrecognised
injury of war, and the impact it can have
on even the closest of families. With
compassion and fearlessness, Vamos
brings its trademark, wordless, full mask
style to a story that needs to be told.
