Well had a great weekend. Combining being a musician and a promoter is hard work though..
The Maze in Nottingham was a great gig, all ages from teenagers to 60s there who share a love of jazz.
Thanks to Bob Meyrick for these photos. Then the madness of the London Jazz Festival weekend. Wonderful concert playing with Kathy Dyson and Sarah P in Emily Remembered. Supporting Norma Winstone, Nikki Iles and Mark Lockheart at St Mary’s in N16. All filmed by a French film crew.
Sunday 23 Took part in a panel discussion and then basically three separate sets of music – we had to improvise something as one of the bands turned up really late – fire in Charing Cross station.. What a great afternoon it was. The Blow the Fuse takeover of the QEH Front Room.

In honour of the 2014 EFG London Jazz festival I present my ‘jazz face’.
It’s actually my guitar face. i don’t know why people love to see the bad face but there you go. What on earth to practise as i have gigs coming up this week with LUND, ARQ, Emily Remembered and Baluji Shrivastav.
