Soundwaves are back at the Seckford Theatre, Woodbridge tomorrow night for a CD launch.  Names we recognise are Ed Sheeran of course, Friendly Misunderstood Rabbits and bill topping Cheeky Slow Kids Cheeky and the Nosebleeds who seem to have amputated themselves to The Cheek (like the French say there's always one who kisses and one who offers it ... the cheek that is).  More info on MySpace.
