NOTTINGHAM – MARCH 31

A little live outing at last. Up in Nottingham playing at the Running Horse. Jinder and Andy Whittle also on the bill. Good songwriting and good intentions all in one night. Regular readers will know how long I’ve been doing gigs with Jinder (a while, now), and what fun they are. This one, no doubt, […]

Jennifer is a terrific songwriter; she makes it look easy. Come along […]

Totnes pop-up choir

I’ve been sent a nice photo of the short rehearsal I did with the Totnes pop-up choir at the weekend in Dartmouth. Sounded splendid. I very much look like I’m in the ‘naughty chair’.
