Riverblue At This Years Apple and Cider Fest
“I wanted to thank you and the band for such a wonderful performance yesterday. You are all very talented and it was a pleasure to take some time out from the juice making to just sit and enjoy the music.
Having you guys play at the event made such a big difference to the ambience and the overall feel of the event. It would be lovely to be able to collaborate again in the future”
