An Exciting Stumpy Recap

Well, that was great fun earlier in the year playing all the live dates. After appearing with a songs and stories Stumpy performance at the North Walsham ‘Rite of Spring’ Festival in June, the Stumpy bandwagon played 2 x sold out shows in Norwich (Anteros Arts Foundation) and in North Walsham (Community Centre). The North Walsham show was a fundraiser for Poppyland Radio, North Norfolk’s Community Radio Station, and raided £600 for the station. These dates were then followed by a packed event at the Caddington Local History Group, just over the hills and field from Stumpy and gang’s old stamping grounds. A huge thank you to everyone who came along to these shows and performances.
