Callaghan
Goodbye London...Hello America! Gig
July 14th
The 100 Club, Oxford Street
Positively your last chance to see Callaghan on this side of the pond for a year! Join Callaghan and her band for her final London gig before the acclaimed singer-songwriter travels to the USA to record her first album with Grammy nominated US artist Shawn Mullins.
Join Callaghan and her band for her final London gig just days before the acclaimed singer-songwriter travels to Atlanta to finish her first album.
Since recording 'Smile' in Atlanta last summer the song has been picked up by BBC Radio 2, across BBC local radio and by stations as far afield as Australia and California. Now Callaghan is set to return to Atlanta to finish her album and tour the US with Grammy nominated singer-songwriter Shawn Mullins.
Before she goes Callaghan is bringing together musician friends at the legendary 100 Club for an evening of original live music, the occasional cover and a cameo appearance by Joe Thompson; the Ivy Club's phenomenal jazz pianist.
You'll enjoy an evening of live Pop, Country, Americana and even an American Standard or two with Joe on the club's fantastic grand piano.
Just 100 seats are available, so book yours now to see Callaghan off in style at the 100 Club.
Wednesday 14th July - the 100 Club - 100 Oxford Street, W1D 1LL.

I have been really pleased with the reaction from the media so far. Here are just a few press articles I have had in the last week...

I am launching a campaign to get into the UK Top 40 this November and need your help!
I am releasing my new single “Look Around” on October 26th on iTunes UK
It might seem a crazy idea to some people, but last year the average number of singles sold to get into the Top 40 was only 2,500 – not many I think you’d agree?
So even though I have no manager, no record label, and no PR budget, I think with your help this can be achieved.
I think it will send out a really strong message that the public can decide who is successful – not just Simon Cowell!
This campaign really is about shaking up the industry and seeing what one unsigned artist can achieve – I am therefore donating all proceeds from the single to music charity Live Music Now.
I am encouraging people to sign up to my mailing list to pledge their support and in return I will send them a free download of my version of the song “Over the rainbow”.
Then all I need you to do is spend 79p of your hard earned cash on the week of 26th October to help me achieve this goal. If I sell over 2,500 downloads you might just see me in the Top 40 on 2nd November!!
If there is anyone you know who might be interested signing up to the campaign, please feel more than free to pass on the message!
Thanks for your support
