About this Event

Ladies and gentlemen, friends and guests, it is with great pleasure that we present to you our special festive event, now in its fifth great year.

THE SANTA CAUSE 5



Taking place this year at the excellent Chinnery's over two rooms, this special event sees performers and artists uniting for one night to make the lives of all the homeless children of this town a little brighter this Christmas.



Since Band4Life began back in 2011, we have presented events in and around Southend with the sole intention of passing on all the money raised to often overlooked causes, focussing all our efforts again this year to giving a little hope to the homeless kids within the area.



Working with the excellent Argosy Toys and in association with The Dove Project and other essential Southend services, we are funding a special delivery of presents selected by hand for all those children in the hostels and shelters around Southend, packed and wrapped and ready to drop for the big day when they won't be expecting anything and will get more than they could wish for - with your help...



On Saturday December 16th, we offer you the love and respect of over sixty musicians, artists, poets, performers and volunteers so that you may help us raise all we can to bring the spirit of Christmas and light up the darkest corners.



The line-up so far is as follows:



JAY LAKER'S SPOKEN WORD / THE 54 PLATES / THE TRUSTED / WHOM BY FIRE / THE WATERFALLS / THE HONKIES / WINTER / ANGEL AND THE MELODYHORNS / OWEN WILLIAMS / DR ZOD / BLOOM / DAVE WOODCOCK AND THE FIXTURES / THE TUPPENNY BUNTERS / THE PLAN / FRANKIE ROE / LEO CLEMENSON / SPECIAL GUESTS TBC.



Everybody works for free to bring this to you. All we ask is you buy a ticket (£5), come along early to support the show, have a look at the raffle and above all enjoy yourself in a festive celebration of what we can do if we work together :)
