St Andrew's and all that Jazz!
On Saturday 19 November St Andrew's Bo'ness is hosting a fantastic evening of music featuring Marcus Ford and his friends. The evening will include a wide selection of popular songs including a number of well know jazz classics. In past years the concert has been sold out. We are hoping for the same interest this year. The proceeds from this event will go towards altering one of the transepts as part of our new building programme. We hope to create a more flexible space in the church for young families who want to worship on Sundays and also have a flexible space which can be used by various groups during the week. If you'd like to support the project why not come along and enjoy the music. ticket are £8.00. You can order them from the church office at 01506 825803

Marcus has performed all over the world including Germany, Italy, Switzerland and in recent years has made fours trips to China playing. His band The Ritz Trio have been resident musicians on the Former Royal Yacht Britannia for over a decade and will be providing their usual hugely entertaining programme of swing, Latin as well as some more popular tunes.
