Last Friday, our team celebrated our annual summer party with a fantastic ‘Battle of the Bands’ contest courtesy of WeJam, followed by some fun at the batting cages and karaoke at Sixes Social Cricket ! Propellerites formed bands, chose their names and instruments and practised their songs before performing for the Propeller crowd. A special shoutout to ‘Kieran’s Angels’ for winning the people’s vote for best act with their rendition of ‘Don’t Look Back in Anger’. The performance was spellbinding, thanks in no small part to the excellent musicians: Josh Naylor-Higgs on drums, Katie F. on bass, Jon Brown on electric guitar, Hilary Gray, Edward Foster and William Jefferies on keyboards - and of course, Kieran Kent on vocals! A huge thank you to the amazing Alysha Alibhai and Mia Pridie for organising such a creative and memorable social event, as always!
