# Publicity sheet with trio photograph

> A one-page publicity sheet, part handwritten and part typed, prepared to promote The New English for bookings. A grainy photograph shows three people outdoors beside a low wall, with the handwritten names Sara Hewes, Johnny Rasheed and Shareef C around it. Bookings are directed to an agency, A C Promotion, in Liverpool. The handwritten text says the band had supported The Brilliant Corners and Frank Chickens, played the Wimbledon Festival and recently appeared on Network East. A typed question-and-answer section gives the band’s views on music, the indie scene and politics.
