Plans for 2009.

Well, I thought it should be about time so here we go a-blogging…..I’ve got a new band who are almost formed including Emma Burgess on keyboards/ backing vocals and Simon Taylor on Bass. We have someone who can, and may well play drums for us but the person in question also has commitments with another band so we’re still considering percussionists. We’re pretty open-minded by the way so if you just have a snare and a pair of razor-fish shells to play it with (& you’re good!), we’ll still bear you in mind.

Drummers with conventional kits are OK too!

I’m still gonna book the odd solo gig as well so stay tuned. Enjoy the snow, J xxx

Oxjam nearly Undone!

After an almost disastrous problem caused a last minute change of venue(!), due it seems to sheer incompetence on behalf of Congleton Borough Council. Oxjam quickly relocated to the meeting rooms at The Wheatsheaf, Sandbach.

Dayve Dean débuted his new, as yet un-named but already tight, accomplished-sounding band and managed to take some photos of me between sets!

Oxjam - Sandbach Town Hall this Saturday

I'll be playing in Sanbach Town Hall this Saturday evening along with a host of artists and bands. Free entry from 7Pm but money will be collected for Oxfam.
There will also be other distractions including fair trade goods.
Full details on the Oxjam Blog.

Hanley Gig

I originally stated here that "I ended up headlining at the Unicorn last night" but this is really not being fair to Pete Carney. When I say "ended up" I really mean that it was just the way it turned out...I was there to be supporting with Pete as the headline, but Pete was gracious enough to make it a joint effort with us both swapping over through the night. Thanks Pete, Matt from the Unicorn and everyone who came. It seems I'll be back there sometime in February.
