WIRRAL BANDS: Guardians to play Guitar Festival and change of name for Mi-Sis

WALLASEY band Guardians – formerly Hippys on the Hill – have been added to the line-up of the Wirral International Guitar Festival.

The rockers will appear at the Floral Pavilion, New Brighton, on Saturday, November 19, in their own exclusive gig.

Other November gigs include dates in Preston, Liverpool, Sheffield, Crosby and Barnsley – and a return to Wirral for the Wirral Youth Arts Expo at Pilgrim Street Arts Centre, Birkenhead on Thursday, November 24.

Guitarist Brad Done said: “Renaming the band has been a tough one for us. We didn’t want to lose anyone on the way but we decided it was time to bite the bullet and get on with it.’

Tickets are £5 and are available from www.bestguitarfest.com or from the theatre box office on 0151 666 0000.
