10.02.09 Silver Sounds Update:
"Here is a link to the first (of hopefully many) Silver Sounds/ www.cakebomb.co.uk collaborations – InMe played a set to a sold out crowd in Lincoln. The gig was promoted on the show and a youtube channel will be set up featuring footage shot by Thomas Ridgewell and Chris Bingham. If you ever want your band to be featured in this way, don't hesitate to get in touch. Several requests have already gone out for interviews to be filmed (in the same way as InMe, which will be up shortly). The Lincoln market is set to thrive so don't be afraid to pass this along to booking agents, I'm acting as liason for the venue.
