Chris Berry & Joe Longthorne – the book – latest!

Orders are coming in thick and fast for the OFFICIAL JOE LONGTHORNE AUTOBIOGRAPHY and the LIMITED EDITION CD of his first ever recordings, never before released!

Joe Longthorne at home

Joe is very pleased with the way the book is coming along. ‘Chris has done such a fantastic job that this really does come over as me. I had hoped to write a book for a number of years and I am really excited about the launch of the book now. Chris came over to my home this week and read through the whole of my life story. It was quite emotional listening to my own story being read to me. There were many times when I had to ask Chris to stop for a short while just so that I could get my head back together again. Listening to it all again brought everything I have done and everything I have been through right back to me.’ Chris Berry, who is due to return to Joe’s home this week for the final run through, will be presenting the whole finalised script to the publishers on Friday of this coming week. ‘We are bang on schedule,’ says Chris. ‘Joe has so much to look forward to this year and the book is a big part of that. Orders are just starting to come in thick and fast now, so if you want to be amongst those who get the opportunity to have your copy personally signed by Joe, and if you’d like to also be one of the lucky ones to pick up a copy of his limited edition CD of his early recordings, never before released and all good quality, then it’s time to get under way. The details below are the ONLY way you can get BOTH of these items together, and be amongst the FIRST to read Joe’s life story in his own words!’

Chris Berry plays FOX & HOUNDS in Boroughbridge THIS SATURDAY 19 DECEMBER

He might be seen as lead singer of FOG, CMC and FOG ACOUSTIC, but Chris Berry is also a solo performer and has been performing under his own name over the last two weeks.

Chris Berry plays The Fox & Hounds, Boroughbridge Saturday 19 December

This Saturday sees Chris follow up his sensational night @ The Mex in Thorner (Sat 12 Dec) with another barnstorming performance in prospect @ the FOX & HOUNDS, which is situated in Langthorpe, BOROUGHBRIDGE, North Yorkshire. Landlord Richard says: ‘Chris is a superb entertainer. He’s one of the few guys that play in bands who can then come out onhis own and win over an audience. It doesn’t matter how many are in he sees it as his objective that everyone should enjoy his performance.’ Chris has been playing with the other 3 acts for the past 5 years but is clearly enjoying his solo sets. ‘You really can have such great fun with people and in my nights the audience still gets up to dance even though it’s just me and my electro acoustic guitar. I am thoroughly looking forward to Saturday. Last Saturday’s gig in The Mex was nothing short of amazing. It was packed and they’re all going to be back there when I play again in the early part of next year!’  Chris plays a whole range of styles and eras from 50s to current day – Buddy Holly to Kings of Leon and everything in between – and there’s plenty of great singa long tunes too.. The fun starts @ the FOX & HOUNDS around 9pm.   www.chrisberrysingerandwriter.wordpress.com   www.myspace.com/chrisberrysinger   www.myspace.com/cmcacoustic    www.the-fog.talktalk.net     Chris is also on Facebook & Twitter   Email: chris@chrisberry.tv
