DEVON performer Mama Tokus is inviting people to join her show The Get-Together.

The get-together event is also a music show with a meet and greet format, with wonderful music at The Beehive in Honiton on February 3.

A Get-Together features soulful, gospel-style vocals and infectious music from multiple singers and performers – with opportunities for joining in woven into the fabric of the night.

On her music and experience, she said: “I’m from a soul-jazz-blues background and that’s the kind of music that really touches people in a group, so when we can get some collective spirit going in The Get-Together, then it becomes a magical kind of night for everyone.”

“It’s a memorable, uplifting night where people can enjoy some familiar tunes played by great musicians, have a bit of a giggle at some funny stories, maybe even sing their hearts out and have a really good time,” said Mama Tokus.

“A Get-Together is a secular affair, although there’s definitely a collective spirit of joy in the room,” she said.

The show is packed with soulful songs, many of which will be familiar to the audience – with the chance to join in where possible.

Lyrics are beamed up behind the band and Mama guides the audience (who invariably join in with the singing). Although if you want to sit back and take it all in, that’s fine too.

Other Performers include:

Mama Tokus – soulful jazz singer and performer

Tom Unwin – Totnes jazz pianist and workshop leader

Phil Rossiter – guitar man who regularly performed with the late Noel Harrison

Colin Seddon – percussionist extraordinaire, who performed with Inner Sense and 808 State

”There is humour and talk interspersed with the singing, and the show’s stated mission is to spread joy.

“We’re facing difficult, divisive times where people are separated and atomised,” said Mama.

“Today’s ‘social’ media often means we’re alone, staring at a screen instead of being a room with our friends and our friends-to-be.”

On the get why she planned a get together music session she said: “I’ve planned The Get-Together to be a session where we can all hang out, enjoy music together, have a bit of laughter and lots of uplifting feeling.”
