6th December - Pauly Zarb and Family at the Local Barbershop

On the 6th Living Advent Calendar performance we were at The Local Barbershop for another brilliant event, this time by Pauly Zarb and family.  Pauly originally from Australia now residing in Wokingham, has been a professional musician for over 20 years. From Australia’s best festivals to USA's best festivals and now in Europe, Pauly is well recognized throughout the world of music.

Pauly opened his performance with a heartfelt rendition of "O Holy Night" whilst the crowd were handed a warming Hot Chocolate from Local Barbershop host Simon. Pauly then invited his daughters Chloe and Ella up to join him, aged just 11yrs and 9yrs they displayed their talents playing "Silent Night" on the violin and guitar. Even his youngest, 3 year old Zavier couldn’t resist a turn at the mic with an impromptu rendition of Tommy Thumb.  We were then treated to a true family singsong of classics such as “Rockin around the Christmas Tree” and “Frosty the snowman”. What a talented family!!

Many thanks to the Local Barbershop our hosts for this evening. In their words. “The Local Barber Shop is truly local! We have a team all living within a 5 mile radius of the shop. A majority of the team went to school in Wokingham. That means that the money we generate is spent locally and benefits the town. Come and be a part of a local success story.”

Tonight we will be at the Ship Inn for performance 7, Ben Lambert with some swing classics, Michael Buble and a few seasonal songs.
