What's occurin'

It's been about a month or more since I posted a blog. Apologies!

Right now I'm listening to Joe Pug in my headphones. I supported him last month in Glasgow (still amazed I managed to land that gig!), and it was an absolute pleasure and an honour. I've been a fan of his for about a year now, and the fact he was such a great guy just added to the whole thing.

HUGE thanks to everyone who signed up to the mailing list after that show. It was great to talk to so many great people. I'll hopefully land another show with Joe when he comes back to the UK to tour his new album.

I'm also going to be supporting Neal Casal in May! That gig was supposed to have been at the beginning of March but was postponed for whatever reasons. I wasn't too familiar with Neal's solo stuff before, but obviously knew him as the guitarist in Ryan Adams & The Cardinals. I am fast becoming a fan. The guy can write a damn fine song! May 26th, Electric Circus, Edinburgh. Put it in your diaries, and grab tickets from the link on my Tour page :)

Our kitten Biggs is getting, err, big. He's awesome, but he can be a little shit too! This is him trying to be cute:


In other news, I'm booked to play at the Deer Shed Festival this summer. A nice weekend of folky vibes and great food beckons. Hope the weather behaves itself! It'll be my first festival since Wickerman in 2007 so I really can't wait. 

I bore myself with these blogs so I'll sign off now. Much Love.
