Bram Stoker Rock Band moving forward
Posted July 27th, 2011 by sheila in
Our first gig as Bram Stoker - breaking the ice. It's good to be playing out again with new songs and high enthusiasm. We have all gone full-circle - all in different directions since this band was together last in 1973. Now we'll just see what happens................

NEW BAND - The reformation of 'BRAM STOKER"
Posted October 30th, 2010 by sheila
"Bram Stoker" was the very first band I was in - all prior to playing bass. The first, original phase of Bram Stoker was formed in 1968 and consisted of: Pete Ballam (guitar); Rob Haines (drums); Tony Bronsdon (Hammond organ); Jon Bavin (bass). Harvey Coles joined in 1971 on bass and I joined the same time as vocalist/dancer. We did a years' tour in Turkey, Greece and Italy and on returning in 1973, all went our own ways.
What a cliche - but it was THE Perfect Day

Gorgeous wedding; Delicious food, great Reception; Family, friends and lots of musicians - not forgetting Cheeky, our four-legged 'Flower-Girl' - all made this a Perfect Day. Even the blossoms bloomed on que..... tomorrow back to business of 'band rehearsals'!
Too late to turn back now!

A small but delightfully informal turn-out; Brother (Tony) played "Trumpet Voluntary" as my Father walked me down the aisle; Hilary (Cousin) played our hymns and the place had a huge percentage of musicians which was nice when it came to the singing bits!

When Harvey came to see me in Florida from Texas, in 2007, it began 'Our Story' the 2nd time around...after 15 years apart. So, long story short - we got married on "Cinco de Mayo" this year - for those unfamiliar with that special date in the Americas, it was Wednesday, 5th of May. The amazing Chapel-Blessing in our village of Fovant, outside Salisbury was preceded by a quick Registry Office legal ceremony earlier that morning.

Soloist or Duo - we're up and ready for a British audience. We're sticking to 'our roots' of Classic Rock, Blues, Jazz and maybe a smidgen of Country if wanted..... take us back to 'The Gulf' eh?!
Seriously Folks we're here and ready to gig within an hours' radius from Salisbury. If your budget allows, we also have a great drummer available to 'up' us to a tasty trio.
