UPDATES

Some Updates…

Been out and about playing around sunny Cornwall this past week…

A set at Jamaica Inn followed by an outdoor open mic there… special night! Met a mother and son from Tasmania, I could have sat and spoken to them all night.

Lovely mix of musicians and music.

Taste festival in Newquay with my covers band “Fastlane” & Country gig at
The Red Lion, St. Columb Major

The Weather has been so good that I’ve been down the beach with my family and bumming around the county with them. Wouldn’t want to be doing anything else over the half term.

I have been writing lots too. I’m hoping to record some music to release soon. We’ll see.

I hope you’re all well, wherever you are.

What an amazing weekend at Chiseldon Hotel for the Country Guitar Retreat. It was an absolute joy and honour to spend time with everyone, meeting new people and made a load of new friends all through music and guitars! A beautiful setting and hotel, the warmest welcome and hospitality. The food, the rooms, the shower! We were all very well looked after the whole time.

If you have ever thought about going on a guitar retreat… do it! Check out https://guitar-retreats.co.uk and see what’s coming up! You won’t regret it..

Huge thank you to Stuart and all of the pickers for having me. I’m extremely grateful.

(Oh… And so many lush guitars!)

TUESDAY MAY 5th

I have no public gigs this week but some news to share that I’ll be heading to Wiltshire with https://guitar-retreats.co.uk for a Country Guitar Retreat! A whole weekend of playing country guitar with country guitar enthusiasts!

Oh and another update… the beard is gone! Over the bank holiday weekend I had a solo gig, a duo gig playing Soul Music with my partner at Anchor Barrow Campsite. On Saturday I performed a set of country classics with my band “Second Hand Country Band” at 12:30. At 3:45 I played in a Kings Of Leon Tribute band so I trimmed the beard down.

The following day I was performing as Phil in a Phil Collins Tribute band! Something I’ve never done before and I have never gigged without a guitar around my neck. I was so scared but thoroughly enjoyed it! Anyway.. that’s how the beard met its fate.
