An Offer I Couldn't Refuse...

Polly is just back from her first international gig! She and guitarist Steve Picken were invited to Rome to entertain the crowds at the ATP International Tennis Tour - the same tour that comes to Wimbledon in June. Once Federer and Nadal had finished on the courts, Polly played out a stomping set to a 3,000 strong crowd of sportspeople, celebrities and tennis fans - and went down an absolute storm!

With a live feed going out to another 15,000 people around the tournament, the huge success and rapturous feedback from the night has fuelled demand for the proposed Italian Club Tour later in the year.

This would be in collaboration with renowned british blues artist Steve Philips of Notting Hillbillies fame, and would likely take place over the course of two weeks in November.
