John Blaylock And The 100 - EP Launch ft The Daytime Singers

Manchester singer-songwriter John Blaylock presents a new EP, recorded with a large community choir, at this charity-led evening at Band On The Wall in the Northern Quarter. The pop, rock and indie material is the focus of the launch.

The EP, titled John Blaylock and The 100, was recorded with one hundred singers from The Daytime Singers. It includes four songs from Blaylock's album Sounds of The Dreadnought, arranged so that the choir's voices carry the original music. The recording project is also the subject of a film, You Don't Want To Hear Me Sing, which documents how the collaboration came about.

The launch night also includes sets from Alty Voices and Sing Space Choir. Copies of the EP and of Sounds of The Dreadnought are sold on the day, and all proceeds from CD sales are donated to two causes: the MND Association, which supports people affected by motor neurone disease through care, research and campaigning, and the Tree of Life Centre in Wythenshawe, which provides services to the local community.

Band On The Wall is a concert and performance venue in Manchester's Northern Quarter. Because the evening raises money for local and health charities, it will appeal to audiences who enjoy community singing and want to support good causes through live music.
