HMV release Life Under The Sun Saturday 18th July!

Oposium can now confirm that their album Life Under The Sun will be officially released in HMV in Poole on 18th July 2009 (this coming Saturday!). Priced at £7.99, if you buy the cd from HMV then you will also get a cool free Life Under The Sun limited edition sticker.



Richard personally went down to sign off the deal with HMV (pictured above) today.

To celebrate this release, Oposium will be down in the Dolphin Centre with a promotional stall all day from 9am - 5pm. Doubtless with more free stuff to give away!!



Life Under The Sun is also being sold in store in Elemental - the alternative clothing and piercing store, upstairs in the Dolphin Centre.



Along with the album release, Greg Sammon's from Cross Rhythms radio will also be interviewing Oposium in the afternoon for an upcoming feature on his radio show.

See you on Saturday !

Peace always,

Mayor of Poole Charity Fundraiser

This coming Saturday Oposium duo Richard McLester and Sam Hanson are involved in performing on a more classical stage raising money in aid of the Mayor of Poole's Charities. Mayor of Poole Charles Meachin approached Richard last year to organise a concert which will be taking place at Skinner Street URC church on Saturday 11th July 2009.

Tickets are £10 and include refreshments and a glass of wine. Doors at 7pm.



Headlining the concert is violin supremo Malcolm Evans whose beautiful playing captured the audience when he performed at the Routes To Roots charity concert headlined by Oposium last year.

Extremely talented flautist Becca Ellis will be demonstrating her skills as well as sopranos Charlotte Woods and Hanne Ely. All the musicians will be accompanied by Sam Hanson on piano.

Richard couldn't resist the opportunity to perform on the Oposium Piano (and we know what that means!) and will also be compere for the evening.

For tickets, please call 01202 633200


In other news, Oposium would like to thank the Lloyd's for their amazing welcome at the weekend and for providing accomodation. To see where Oposium stayed, please visit www.orchardviewcottage.co.uk. Thank you!

Oposium Concert in Yeovil

Saturday 4th July saw Oposium take to the road and hit the Somerset town of Yeovil to headline an event called Edge Extreme. In usual Oposium fashion the band took over a youth venue belonging to Yeovil Elim Pentecostal church.

This was certainly the smallest venue the band have played recently, but proved that the flaming piano could work just as well in a small room (proving some recent health and safety criticisms unfounded) as in a larger scale venue, although the temperature in the room was a baking 30deg by the end.



Oposium would like to thank the organisers, especially Dave Meggers who booked the band and headed the event. Also thanks to local Yeovil band Soulcry who supported on the evening.

A press article on the event can be found here on a local Yeovil news site;

And some of the classic moments from the weekend have been put together into Episode 5 of Oposium TV - watch out for Molly the cat!



Peace always,
