Last night brought something truly special — our Dueling Pianists filled the room with incredible energy, taking requests and creating moments that had everyone smiling. The crowd matched their brilliance, turning the night into something unforgettable. 🎹🍸
With our new menu in full swing and cocktails flowing, the atmosphere was effortless — vibrant, elegant, and distinctly Sand Bar.
Thank you to everyone who joined us — you made it a night to remember. 💙

🌟 Sisco Spotlight is back! 🌟
This week it’s all about our incredible Viki Calver 🎹✨
Not only is Viki a phenomenal Musical Director, she’s one of the kindest, most wonderful people you could hope to work with. Viki works tirelessly behind the scenes, is always there to help, and is such a joy to have both in rehearsals and on stage.
Viki works tirelessly to support our performers and productions, and then amazes us all when she steps into the spotlight herself... As one review from Musicals Singalong said:
“I absolutely adored the resident MD, who had the quickest hands on the keyboard I’ve ever seen, and also blew me away with her singing in Defying Gravity.” 💫
Thank you for everything you do Viki!

@outoftheshadowschoir Festive Concert 2023 🎶♥️ #soldout
I cannot begin to express how in awe of these wonderful people I am. This was the first time all three Out Of the Shadows Ensembles came together and, my goodness, it was a truly special moment. Having rehearsed separately all term the team work on the day to bring everything together was simply glorious. Thank you all for your stunning voices, your dedication and your camaraderie.
To the @galaxybigband it was so wonderful to hear you all and to sing with you. There is something magically festive about a big band, and you all sounded fabulous. Thank you so much for coming to perform with us and for adding your sparkle to the evening.
We were also incredibly privileged to have a performance from @bellarossmusic who wowed us with one of her original songs. If you’ve not yet heard this amazing young woman’s music I urge you to check her out on Spotify ♥️
To the incomparable @georgina1983 and @katycocks , thank you, thank you, thank you for being the epic choral directors that you are. Your choirs sounded phenomenal individually and together and I couldn’t be more grateful for you #shadowsdreamteam
As many of you will know a concert cannot run smoothly without a huge team, the set up and get out (not to mention box office and vast quantities of mulled wine) would simply not have been possible without @nicksnell92@abi_dolan@georgina1983@alix.pochribniak88@lishod@cjcalver , Paul and Nik, to mention but a few. You are hero’s ♥️♥️♥️
And the most ginormous thanks to the legendary Matt on sound who made the day a total dream and is genuinely the loveliest human to work with 🎶🎉♥️
I officially cannot wait for the 2024 Shadows adventures 🤓🙌🏻🎶
First Show with this fab bunch!
Absolutely loving getting to play so many absolute bangers in the Frankie Valli back catalogue, especially with the outstanding vocal talents of @gareth_gates@damion.scarcella@antony_cottrell Jordan and Jonny 🎶
Huge thanks to my fabulous band (so sorry we didn’t get a pick…..clearly we were too busy having fun 😉) it’s going to be a pleasure over the next few weeks @adamchineryguitar@nickandersondrums@annieblakebass ☺️
Massive shout out to the wonderful @cjcalver@phoebe_calver@heather_dance_always , Chelle, Roger, Karen and Jill for coming along to support ♥️ love you all
Now I’m off to run some segues 😂
Well that was a glorious day trip to Wales!! Worth every mile!
Had so much fun depping on the @barricadeboys tour at the stunning @chepstowcastle thank you @jamesdoughtymusic for a fab gig and an unexpected but really rather marvellous version of Where Is Love!! If you’ve not seen the Barricade Boys I would highly recommend it, fabulous energy, epic voices, stunning arrangements and lovely chaps to boot. The band are pretty good too ;)
Happy Monday all 🤍
