🌱 Just getting back up to speed with computers after playing at the super Landworkers’ Alliance album launch-fest gig in Abergavenny.
Please support this wonderful organisation and buy a copy of this album, so brilliantly curated by Sid Goldsmith and Humphrey Lloyd, which is chock full of protest tunes (inc a reworking of my track The Ballad of Hawkwood)

Some new music – Woodman, Spare That Tree
The more observant of you will have noticed a slow down in my creative output since things took off with Three Acres And A Cow.
I’m looking forward to redressing the balance this year and here is the first fruits of that; a recording of ‘Woodman, Spare That Tree’ which will be on my forthcoming album ‘From The Ground Up’.

album launch at ‘green note’ in camden on 5th february
***STOP PRESS*** as of 3rd February, this event is now sold out.
To mark the completion of my fourth album ‘More Than Today‘, I have gathered the musicians I worked with recording the album together for a special one-off show at Green Note in Camden next month.
I have asked Effra and The Heartlands to join me for the evening, both are excellent bands who I am looking forward to sharing a stage with muchly.
The venue is quite small so please buy tickets in advance – it would make me super sad to have anyone turned away on the night.

before the gold rush, october gig in crouch end
I’ve just confirm a show at a cosy spot in Crouch End called The Haberdashery for the lovely London promoters ‘Before The Gold Rush‘ on Wednesday 2nd October.
It will be the first London sit down gig type thing with a wonderful Canadian violinist called ‘Chance’ I met busking a few weeks ago – we have been out and about doing a few festivals so should be nicely rehearsed by October. Candy is joining us so there may possibly be some three part harmonies… #excited
