Hackney WickED Festival – Folly For A Flyover – Hackney Wick, London – 29/07/11
some photos from july
July was quite the epic musical adventure with over fifteen gigs including a nature reserve, a squat, a farm, a cafe, a theatre, a library, a shopping mall, a canal boat and a floating stage by a pop-up cinema. Here are some of the photos…
Performing at The Big Day Out Festival at The Pleasance… That is none other than the living legend Ronnie Le Drew doing the puppetry! Photograph by Joey Toller.
This was taken at Helen Babbs‘ book launch on the summer solstice at Camley Street Nature Reserve.
These photos were both taken during our Folly For A Flyover show on a floating stage!

moodmixes and magnatune
I have had my music on the magnatune website for over a year now and they have been awesome, handling all of my music licensing stuff and generally being the most ‘on it’ and accountable crew I work with.
You can hear loads of music on their site which you might not find elsewhere – it is all curated by one guy called John who has great and eclectic taste!
They are currently in the business of starting a website to provide music for businesses and restaurants called moodmixes which you should check out too.
folk at the urban physic garden
My next show is at The Urban Physic Garden in Southwark, sharing a stage with Sam Lee and Dear Winesburg.
The evening is being put on by The Magpie’s Nest and Folie à Deux, my favourite north and south london folk promoters working together for the first time.
The garden is a lovely green spot with table tennis tables, see-saws and a camp fire. Need I say more! Do come – facebook page is here.
