Band Republic – ‘the people’s record label’ hosts a night of live new music with Rhys Williams, Ellie Rose and Carrie Haber to grace the Floripa stage.
If you haven’t been to a Band Republic night, then things are done slightly differently. The night usually consists of four different acts, from country to indie, pop to rock, playing three songs in the first half, and three more in the second half after an interval. The intimate feel of Floripa provided is a great way to get to know the artists, not only through their captivating and soul-filled performances, but also with the opportunity for the crowd to speak to all of the talent as they mingle after their sets.
 
Singer-songwriter Rhys Williams and his band take to the Floripa stage. Williams has been best known as the third most famous flautist in popular music history, having supplied a one-minute flute solo to Morrisey’s ‘You Are The Quarry’ album. Also been described as
Carrie Haber, singer-songwriter-pianist that pops, performs her new material from ‘Taurus’, a new EP produced by Grammy award winning, Steve Orchard. Carrie has already received great interest and affection from the likes of Annie Lennox, Mike Stevens and airplay from BBC Introducing on Gary Crowley’s show.
