After having a ball at the Caught By The River Event on Saturday, here's a list of a few other things that are coming up this month.
This coming weekend I'll be heading up to the Latitude to help out Adem and some other fine folk performing a set of songs in the cinema tent after a screening of "From Here To before" the wonderful film by Kieran Evans about Vashti Bunyan.
On Saturday 25th July I'll be performing a free show at the Union Chapel as part of the daylight music festival, the odd friend may make an appearance too. The wonderful Nancy Wallace will also be performing a set, Doors are at midday so come early.
