This is a page for my solo material. .....I do other things too, mostly with The Herb Birds, .....that's me and Katty Heath. So ermmm....check them out too!
Solo wise though, I'm a little sporadic. Every three years or so I do some recording, do some solo gigs, pester people into giving me support slots, ...or simply put on my own gigs.
And in the interim I'm usually writing, working my ass off trying to earn a good living, playing out 3/4 times a week with the Herb Birds, ...and generally going off on adventures.
If I happen to advertise a solo gig, and you want to check the original stuff out in a live environment , ....then make sure you come down to the advertised gig, cause lawkes-a-lordy only knows when the next one might be. :)
After you've finished here, you may like to hear this folk-carol on myspace... Poem 230 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my blog for details): CHRISTMAS SUNG SIMPLY
As gospellers have said, Beneath signalling skies, On land dusty to tread, A trough in a stable Was the strawy first-bed Of a divine baby - The forgiving Godhead.
A season for new hope - There then and here now; The yuletide of goodwill - There then and here now.
In respect of this chance, Beneath bright or dark skies, Faith's the star that we glance Attending Christ's churches And trying to enhance, With singing and ritual, Our God-loving stance.

Poem 162 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): TEES TO TYNE: FIRST IMPRESSIONS - SUMMER 2001
Where traditions are not so rare; Sea, country and works scent the air; A multitude of monuments, Planted tubs and patterned pavements.
The longish pedestrian malls; The remnants of defensive walls; Historic buildings are a gauge Of the respect for heritage.
Wheat, rape and pines in the fields; Estuaries guarded by shields; Long sandy beaches and wide scenes; Romantic-ruin go-betweens.
Rivers in parts licked by trees, Or fringed by boat clubs, wharfs, gantries, And crossed by practical delights - Varied spans, forming pleasing sights.
Fine churches headed at Durham; Football kits ad infinitum; Kept castles - one for study; Masonry behind masonry.
And, with moulding-works out that way, It’s somewhere for a longer stay..?

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

Hi there! 'Most Anything' is splendidly timeless...I'd like to hear more of this. You should definitely play more often, although I completely get the sporadic thing! Come play a gig in Leicester sometime soon. The Musician is a good venue to start, if you haven't already...
Cheers for the photo comments lady! Brought back so many memories, we had such a good laugh. I had the best growing up years with you lot, heartaches and tantrums included!!
