Birks says: “A song about reforming the Beatrix Players. The Beatrix Players has now been a part of my life for 20 years or more and it has given me so much – like a fight with Mike Tyson at times, but what a journey, and it is so worth going through the rounds to end up with a band full of personality and respect for each other’s talent. Here is a group of people that are not just living… Oh yes, the Beatrix
Players has definitely started again!”
After a 5-year hiatus, the award-winning Beatrix Players are back with a brand new eight piece lineup and an intriguing new concept album.
The band’s sophomore album Living & Alive will be available digitally from 22nd Sep 2023 and, for fans of vinyl and cd, it can be pre- ordered now from Burning Shed with a limited edition of just 500 copies pressed on coloured vinyl.
