The Long String Hawkers (Happy Jack)

[Silvia Bluejay]

North London-based folk/Americana band with some core members and a bewildering array of deps. Happy Jack joined as a core member earlier this year.

The first gig was at the East Finchley festival last June.

Jack's second gig with the band was at Mascara Bar last July.

The Hideaway on Dec 1st. The lighting was even worse than it looks in these photos.

The band returned to the newly spruced-up Luna Lounge in Leytonstone last Saturday, and a great time was had by all.
