Friday 17 April- Charity gig at Stafford Rangers 

Local band MLC will be taking to the stage this weekend to raise money for Katharine House Hospice. 

The gig will be performed in memory of drummer Pete who sadly died last year. 

MLC said: "In November 2025, we lost our friend, bandmate, and beloved drummer Pete.  

"In his final weeks, Pete was cared for by the incredible team at Katharine House Hospice, a place that gave him comfort and dignity when it mattered most. 

"Even then, Pete was still doing what he loved.
