Rich is heading out on a UK tour in March (see his upcoming shows for details) with Sion Glyn, Cate Timothy and Iwan Morgan in the band. The lovely Cate will also provide support for the Caernarfon gig.

The Seven Sleepers Den is to be re-released on the 5th March on CD and most excitingly on vinyl. I think I'm right in saying it'll be available through My Kung Fu and all good record stores.

Rich will also be recording a session for Stuart Maconie's BBC 6 Music show Freak Zone which will be broadcast on Sunday 4th March between 5 and 8pm.

Perhaps, one day, Rich will even update his myspace himself...

heading out on tour next week supporting Hope of the States. It'll be just him and an acoustic guitar with another tour with his full band later on in April.
