Back from Tour, Danny House, Sheet Music & The Girl in the Little Green Hat!
The Stage is Set at Danny House! Straighten Up and Fly Right at Danny House! I arrived home on Monday evening after spending last week touring along the South Cost. It’s lovely to go somewhere different and since returning home I’ve had a mountain of e-mails to go through in-between performances which is why I’m […]
Off Down to Hurstpierpoint & The South Coast!
Off Down to West Sussex! This week I’ve been out performing every day and I’m now getting ready to head off on tour this Monday as I work my way along the south coast. Once again there never seems to be enough hours in the day as I’ve been trying my best to squeeze in […]
The National Museum of Computing, Peaky Blinders & Manic March!
At The National Museum of Computing! Once again I’m a little late with my blog this week due to the fact I’ve been performing every day and I’ve had a lot of paper work to get through in between shows. I usually like to get my year booked by March but I’ve had a lot […]
High Winds & A Topsy Tervy February!
Almost Like Being in Love! I’m afraid it’s just a quick blog tonight manly because I’ve been working at my desk so much this week I need to get away from my computer screen and do something else. The world is still reeling from Covid and it’s a Topsy Tervy time. Every-day I hold my […]

Back from Swindon, Milestones & Love of the 1940s
Taking a Tram Ride at Milestones Museum! It’s been a very productive week one way and another and I’m thrilled to announce my new flicker book show reel “Love of the 1940s” is now up and running. I never imagined putting a selection of photos with a demo backing track could be this complicated, but […]
Stoke Bruerne, Scotland the Brave & Over to Swindon!
Out and About at Stoke Bruerne! Once again it’s been another busy week as I went all out for Burns Night on the 25th with “Scotland the Brave” and now I’m getting ready to head off tomorrow to Swindon. I’m booked to perform for a Masonic Lodge, music from the 1920s to WW2 and I […]
Getting Set for Burns Night & Busy for 2022!
Taking Bookings for 2022! Once again by the lateness of hour you can see I’m working into the wee small hours. I confess I don’t really have that much to report this week other than it’s been more of the same with me working hard in the office to sell my dates. On the face […]
Let’s Do it Versus Busy Doing Nothing!
Selling Dates for 2022! It’s been an extraordinary week in the office these last eight days as I’ve been working extremely hard to sell my dates for 2022. With the Queens Accession and Valentines day I’ve sold nearly all of February and I’m now fully booked for Easter with only seven dates remaining for December. […]
