Great New CD
On the advice of a friend, I went into a recording studio in Wellingborough to put some tracks onto a CD. 20 excellent tracks, by artists as diverse as Steve Hackett, Nick Drake, Led Zeppelin and Neil Diamond, as well as a couple of my own. So, If you see me at a gig, make sure that you buy one of these CDs, for £4. (or just buy me a beer)
The Ever-Changing Open Mic
This has become an increasingly popular format over the years. I inherited my first one in The Monk & Tipster in 2006, then moved to The Oak in 2009, then to The Plough in 2011 and in 2012 they are in Middleton Cheney and Weedon. Have a look at the Open Mic tab on the Menu and turn up to one of them.
The format has seen solos with original material, harmonious duos, pot-head poets, pop, rock, folk, slop, rap, blues, jazz, old geezers trying to remember songs, children singing Christmas Carols, ambient bands (please let us know first), Celtic rock, jams, girls with ipods, boys with guitars......, whatever you want to do.
Acoustic Music in The Cafe
The Dolphin Cafe is a friendly food place near the town hall in Towcester. I'll be playing there on the first three Sundays in the month from 12 until 2, if you want to come along.
More Videos
Three more videos have been added: covers of songs by The Beatles, Mike Absolom and Wizz Jones. They were recorded at an Open Mic night in Ashton (don't ask me where that is, I'm just a passenger). Look for the Ashton Village Music Channnel on Youtube for more information and other performers.
