Topical Songs

We write and perform a new topical song for every performance and are now approaching our 50th. From the obvious subjects like elections, potholes and Donald Trump to more obscure ones like Panda Diplomacy, Prince Andrew and ludicrous prices for bread in M&S each finds the funny side of often difficult subjects.

We record them to post on here for you to enjoy.
