Out Of The Blue - wider recognition at last


Out Of The Blue have been regular supporters of Helen & Douglas House Childrens Hospice in Oxford & we have covered their appearance @ Childish Things, (the comedy fundraiser for the hospice) many times.

It was great to have them appear as a surprise for my wife's 40th birthday party last June & they certainly put on quite a show, gaining many new fans.

We have often said they should be on Britains Got Talent & many of Rach's party guests commented the same, so it was exciting to actually see them get into the auditions for this year's show. They had the audience on their feet with their acapella version of Lady GaGa's Poker Face & Justin Timerlake's Sexy Back - brilliantly original & quite a surprise to the judges.

So it was quite a surprise to get a call from them asking if we could cover their live show @ Oxford's New Theatre on Bank Holiday Monday 30th May, midway through the Britains Got Talent live shows. I had actually asked if they could come & perform @ the Lion Live fundraiser I was organising until I realised that they were already pre-occupied!!

Fortunately my friend & photographer Terry Lee was able to cover the event for All People Photography - here are some of the images from the show.

Unfortunately, despite a great performance in the semi-finals with Jump For My Love by the Pointer Sisters, they didn't make it through to the final. They happened to be in the line-up for what was probably the best semi-final. I think we will be seeing more from OOTB & it is a pleasure to work with them.
