0 2017 Tour Blog 2 – London
Having only just left a week before I return to my home City to Play in West London in a Church no less.
Returning home after such a short stint on the road definitely has its benefits. 1st of all I realised quite quickly that I had forgotten a great number of things and as the tour rolled along it occurred to me what I needed. So playing so close to home enabled me to collect various bits and bobs.
Anyway back to the playing. My show was in possibly the most picturesque of all venues and the crew were wonderful that night. Also the show was a part of a bigger event called the Hanwell Hootie.
I was blown away by the number of amazing stages across this small part of West London. It proudly boasts to be the largest free one day fest London has to offer. Once my set was done I had a chance to catch many amazing bands.
Speaking of which I shared the billing with a great band called Chile who had elements of the Knife and the XX to their sound.
For my set it was a real rush on and off affair but with the help of the technicians I managed to go out with my full rig.
Please see below an audience recording of unreleased tune ‘Here is Where it is’.
There are also some shots of me performing taken by the lovely people at West London & Middlesex Twitter Page:
Onward from the big smoke of the English capital I will head to the slightly more rural county of Kent in the deep South East. Playing a few new places along the way.
Before I head there though I did frequent an open mic to practise my piano songs.
Next stop Kent!!

0 Cornwall Calling!!!
This Saturday sees me begin my run of shows in Cornwall.
Cornwall is one of the most beautiful parts of the UK and it has always brought me great joy to travel and perform in the county.
It’s located in the deep south west of england and is known for its beautiful landscapes and rural towns:
It is partly due to all these reasons that I have booked myself a good run of shows keeping me in the area generally for about 3 weeks.
Every single show of the Cornwall run is FREE ENTRY

And I am off!!!!!
Many months of touring begins with a smattering of shows firstly around Essex before I head to London.
Southend kicks things off and despite competing with a boxing match in the pub I am happy to make much chaotic noise and just over joyed to be playing again.
Being the 1st show of the tour many of the tunes played are making their live debut and to be airing them at all is a joyful din.
Kudos to Iain for booking me and Davey Hal (the support act for the night).
Onwards I headed to Cosmic Puffin Fest:
Had to scale down the rig because it was quick change over so it was all pre 2013 material for that one and then the following night was an all out acoustic show in Billericay. Slowly I’m becoming more comfortable at the piano and a couple of piano only tunes made the set that night.
Following a couple of days parked in the pub car park I moved onto performing in Chelmsford. the Venue was called the Basement and the space was awesome as were the staff.
Some great sets from the supports groups and I braved debuting another newbie. One I’ve been piecing together for months. Work in progress title of ‘The Downfall’ please hear a clip of rehearsal of it from here:
Final show of the Essex run was in Basildon. It was a full rig mega session and I was overjoyed to play a stormer. The audience were really on board and following my departure from the stage I was met with many a friendly face.
Next stop is my brief return to London.
