I had a great night out on Friday. My first “originals only” show. Two hours of music. Two sets of my acoustic songs. “Soulful-Original” was the tagline.   Most songs have already been released but some new offerings were seeing the lights on the stage for the first time. Friends rocked up to check out the music and there was plenty of applause and encouragement.  The venue was great with good food and drinks. My recently acquired PA worked perfectly. Best of all I was asked if I would be ok with more bookings. Can’t get much better than that.  UPDATE:  I'm now confirmed for two sessions on Saturday, 27 August!  I'll be playing live from 12 to 2:00pm and then again from 6:00 to 8:00pm.   Thanks to you all for following my journey. All the best and I hope I’ll see you at a gig - sometime ...

“No Place To Go” released overnight.  I really love this song and I’ve had lots of other people let me know they really love it, too.  I wrote the song initially as an exercise with the I heart Songwriting Club.  That was in December last year.  It took an hour to write but was originally called “Lentils In A Can”! I explored some different production ideas with this song. One of my good friends inspired the re-write and I'm very happy with this later version.  When I sent my friend the re-worked song, he said it made him cry - but then felt better afterwards.  Cant get much better than that - enjoy!
