Basia and I have been messing about recording on my little boat – I hope you enjoy this video of us playing The Suitor’s Ballyhoo.
headline show at the slaughtered lamb
Pull Up The Roots have just booked me for a headline show at The Slaughtered Lamb in Clerkenwell on Tuesday 1st November. Which is officially the first time a reputable London promoter have let me do this. To celebrate me and the biggest band I can pull together for the night are going to put on a SHOW.
Tori is going to bring her harp down, we will be unleasing my shiny new dark ditty ‘The Dirge Of Mark Duggan’, Caitlin is playing accordion (it will be her last show for a couple of months as she heads to India for work), Basia will be rocking the violin and hopefully there will be guest moments from some other friends.
Basically, if you have half a mind to come and see me play any time soon, come to this show!

edinburgh fringe festival adventures
Wow – an epic week up at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in which Basia, Jane and I managed to clock up over twelve shows in a week!
Click on the above image to hear us play ‘The Suitors Ballyhoo’ on the last Pleasance podcast of the festival.
Highlights included an amazing show at the last Golden Hour for The Forest Cafe and a lovely moment when we got to serenade a group of Maths academics in The Pleasance Courtyard who got another group of friends to watch us play via skype on their laptop.
Podcast recording and filming … L-R: Paul on camera, Robin on guitar, Basia on violin, Jane on accordion and Al on microphones.
