first norfolk stuff

Thursday, July 29th, 2010

I have got back from spending the most divine three days with the band in an enchanted music studio tucked inside a mill in deepest sunniest norfolk. You can see the studio’s site here but it really does not do justice to the place.

Here is a little live take of us all singing the Ballad Of Hawkwood

There are loads of photos knocking about which I will post as they land in my inbox.

Barbara took this one of me emerging from the gimp-like vocal booth after the last take of the sessions and was able to email it to me straight away from her hi tech new phone so I thought I would post it up now.

lindsay west and new songs

Monday, June 28th, 2010

Having enthusiastically accosted her after a seeing her perform with ‘Matthew And The Atlas‘ a while back, i have recently had the pleasure of working with Lindsay West.

We have been putting harmonies to some new songs of mine and learning a few of hers. At our rehearsal last week, Barbara (who has gone out and bought herself an accordion which she is playing beautifully) took a few snaps.

My favourite is this one above but if you click on the photo you can see a few more. Hopefully you will get to hear how ace the harmonies sound with accordion soon!

A huge thanks to everyone for making it such a special night – Lisa, Stu, Eoin, Emily and Iain for letting me take over their home, Wholefoods, Booja booja, Pukka tea and Yogi Chai tea for the food and drink, my band for being amazing and everyone else for coming and listening!

A few more photos of rehearsing action from the blue door – this time a rehearsal inside.

Amy is doing her playing three instruments at once thang… who’d have thought you could play a glockenspiele with one foot whilst on bass and tambourine too!

Rehearsing on the roof

As well as being quite the violin player, Barbara is also big into her photography. Here are some shots she took a while back of a rehearsal we had on the roof of my studio.

Barbara Bartz and Robin Grey by the village noticeboard in Kelvedon

On friday I had the best gig of my life, hands down. Nice to know after all these years and all these venues there are still gems to be discovered.

The venue is called The Institute and is in a old village in Essex called Kelvedon. The website can be found here – http://www.liveattheinstitute.co.uk/

Barbara and I were supporting Dan Raza, who incidentally got his first gig at the venue when I had to pull out due to illness last summer. He rocked their world so much they invited him back to headline with me as support.

Thanks to Matt Hill AKA quiet loner for the black and white photo below.
