Pictures from The Hope...and it's almost that time of year again!

I would just like to thank everyone who made it to the Hope on November 17th. I had a really good time sharing the stage with some great artists who were also fantastic. It was a genuine pleasure to share a stage with Lee Paul turner, Sophie Yau and Soapy Jefferson. (Apologies for often getting the names mixed up as Sophie Jefferson and Soapy Yau!) To not only perform at the Hope but to also headline was such a blast! (yeah I ended up playing last as the other guys needed to go home early!)

Here's a couple of pics from the gig....courtesy of my lovely Bianca....




I will be returning to the Hope next month in December for a charity Christmas gig on the 16th. I will be sharing the stage with some other great bands such as Tree House Fire, We Walk In Straight Lines, Laura Ward & The Risen Road and Trails. Please don't miss out on this great evening for great music and in support of a fantastic charity which is supporting education for international students. Please follow this link for more info on the charity and the event. I will also be selling physical copies of My Fathers Son EP for £1 each, all proceeds go to charity!

And of course...not to ruin any surprises...I will of course be throwing in some Christmas covers for good measure...in the spirit of things of course!

Other announcements to be made very shortly...oh yes, it doesn't end here....stay tuned!

Just wanna say a massive thank you to Pat Blann for all his hard work that he's put into this EP, I feel kind of bad that it's got my name on it as I feel this is his EP too.
As well as Mr Blann, there are other people along the way I couldn't have done this EP without, Bianca, my family and all my friends and of course a special thanks to Frank Turner who inspired me to continue writing songs and this is where exactly where this EP comes from, a conversation I had with that very man in a pub in Camden.

I would also like to dedicate this EP to Kalan Fletcher, a friend of mine and to lots of others who unfortunately passed away a couple of weeks ago. I worked with him at the Blind Busker and he was a lovely, smiley fun loving chappy who was taken away from us way too early. My deepest sympathy goes out to him and his family and if you wanna write a message then please follow this link.

It doesn't end here though...there is much more to come but you will just have to wait! In the meantime, please download the EP and please enjoy...

And also remember, I'm playing at the Hope this Thursday and I've also just been informed that I'm playing last..so in a way I'm kind of headlining! Please come and support me in my first Brighton headline show!
