Live on the Square music event of bands and solo artists
Live on the Square, organised by volunteers Cllr Pete Dando and Jim Evans with the help of Mold Town Council, will be held on the town's Daniel Owen Square on Sunday, May 4, from 12.30pm to 9.30pm, with a host of local bands and performers taking to the stage. Cllr Dando said: "We are all looking forward to this year's Live on the Square and have six amazing bands and solo singers throughout the day. "Our lineup this year sees the return of Live on the Square crowd favourites Fletch - the ultimate party band bringing high-energy and feel-good vibes to every event, plus newcomers to the event including, Kasp, who will be playing a variety of classic anthems. Music and good times at a previous Live in the Square, Mold. Pictire: Phil Tugwell Photography "The C90's is a band who try to choose interesting songs to whilst picking songs that people remember, but not the songs you'd initially think! "Also joining the line-up are The TTB, a five-piece originally formed in the 1980s when they were at high school in Mold. Twenty on Black are a high-energy rock duo from North Wales, featuring Tron Marshall on drums and Gav Rasmussen on guitar and vocals, and completing the band line up are PTM Music are a Chester/North Wales-based rock and metal covers band, covering everything from The Beatles to Metallica, with three guitarists they don't shy away from those big Iron Maiden harmonies or layered Foo Fighters riffs and melodies."

"Next up is David Murray, lead singer of My Eleventh Toe. David will be doing a stripped back and intimate setting of acoustic songs. Final performer is 17-year-old solo artist Joe Butler, a trained classical pianist who taught himself to play guitar when he turned 13, and now he teaches over 250 children for Europe's biggest music school!"
