Polish Club Concert and Other Important News


  • How time flies...we had been so looking forward to the long awaited home gig at the Polish Club in Barnsley for weeks and it was SMOKING on Saturday..'the crowd were just awesome'. 
Terrornation, who should have headlined the night unfortunately pulled from the gig 2  days before (due to a hand injury, we believe), leaving TWH to fill the entire night- and boy did we have fun?
Intense fog, lights, lasers, neon and much bopping from the crowd- and yes, Izzie's 190 year old Dickensian top hat made an appearance throughout the second half of the set,and  was cautiously, but eagerly bandied around the fans for photographs afterwards.
The appearance was, according to izzie,  '..to mark the anniversary of the year of Dickens' birth in 1812'.  Charles Dickens lived for a time and died in Rochester, Kent, the historically steeped tiny city where Izzie lived for a time.

There are a lot of photographs to come in from friends and fans from the halloween induced night. The entire gig was filmed by the venue and we're hoping for an official review so there'll be tonnes of stuff for you to see soon. Huge thanks to Nikki Szkliniarz for organising the event, our sound technician who did a superb job, the members and landlord of the Polish Club for welcoming us in, and, once again, a wonderful audience. We have already been invited back, so watch this space.


  • Sadly though, we bring you news (although it was no secret) that Nina Sherrard has now left us due to increased workload and difficult shift arrangements. We wish her all the best. We are, of course now searching for someone to take her place to cover backing vocals and incidental keyboards, but we will fulfill existing gigs and continue to arrange new live dates as a two piece in the meanwhile.



  • Dealings with the upcoming album are now also back in full swing and we hope to get that to you in time for Christmas.


  • We are now in possession of TWH hoodies which are black with white Rhinestone lettering (diamond effect stones) ('Tokyo Witch Hunt' on the front, 'TWH' on the left sleeve and www.tokyowitchhunt.com' on the back. Price is 25.00. If you would like to order one, please get in touch via contact@tokyowitchhunt.com . T shirts will be discussed soon.


Catch you soon,
TWH x
