Attachment Theories releases on Monday, October 20th... then on Friday 24th, THIS!

The Bear Wych Project.

I've said before that i've given up trying to predict which gigs will be brilliant and which ones disappointing, though you can't help looking forward to some more than others. To be absolutely honest, I wasn't expecting too much of this one, at least not during my daytime slot anyhow, but it was great; a lovely, music loving, friendly crowd who were really up for it, organised with time in hand, nice. All sorted by Middlewich Music,  Cheers chaps :)

The Edits were mezmeric

Lovely atmosphere

Radio Daze

Red letter day, a tweet by Master song-crafter and producer Nigel Stonier was re-tweeted by none other than the legendary 'Whispering' Bob Harris!

If that wasn't enough, this was immediately before my first radio interview specifically about the album including some premier track plays on the Coffee with Kirsty show on The Cat Radio! Listen again here;

'In the Booth' with Ruth Jacobs.

I recently did an 'In the Booth' session with writer, broadcaster & campaigner, Ruth Jacobs. 

I've done so many utterly banal interviews (and always up for them too!) but these questions drew some uncharacteristically very personal stuff out of me (well done Ruth).

Food for the ears!

Sept 6th, 2014

The Nantwich Food Festival was, as well as food, the setting for large helpings of live music served in generous portions on various stages around the town. Once again, Dan was with me, not knowing quite a few of the songs we played this time, but as reliable as a metronome (but a lot more creative), as always.
