Autumn Leaves

Posted in Gig, News | No comments

So it’s been a while since the Fringe which was as fun and hectic as ever with some stunning acts at Acoustic Edinburgh (even though I somehow managed to play with one of the acts every night).  It was great to sit in with Rosie Brown again and hear tunes from their beautiful 3rd album. [...]

I can’t believe it’s August already.  I was still coming down from my wee jaunt down-under and in between organising Acoustic Edinburgh and some exciting other plans (to be revealed) I’ve been away with Gecko 3 playing at the lovely Kelburn Garden Party and Knockengorroch festivals, the Wickerman festival with Andi Neate and working on [...]

So, 2 years ago I played at the Caledonia Harley Club’s Wallace Rally in Stirling as part of Andi Neate’s entourage (or is that chapter?).
This year we’re back!  4 days of bikes, beer and bands with yours truly opening up on Thursday.  I’ll be doing a solo set, followed by a solo set from the [...]

Where did Winter go? : )  I’m not a fan, so I headed to the Southern Hemisphere for 5 weeks which is why it’s been so long since I posted.  Since getting back I’ve been a busy bee rehearsing and gigging with Gecko 3, Andi Neate, The Gospel Truth Choir and Dajo.  I’ve also been [...]

What are you up to tonight then?  I reckon the safest place to be is in The Lot on Edinburgh’s Grassmarket listening to some lovely acoustic grooves provided by yours truly along with Mat Clements (percussion), Vicky Gray (fiddle) and Udit Duseja (vocals) so put aside your superstitions and make like Stevie.
Also on the bill [...]

Do you remember your first acoustic gig?  Mine was busking with my mate Fergus in Belfast not long before I moved to Edinburgh.  Ferg was over in Edinburgh for a visit and after some busking we decided to try and play somewhere (warm) to an audience who wanted to hear more than Sweet Home Alabama… [...]

I always get really optimistic at New Year [...]

It’s time for my last gig of 2008 and what better way to end the year than at the best of Fondoo at the lovely Eastgate Centre in Peebles?
I’m chuffed to have been voted as one of the favourite acts of Fondoo 2008 and this is going to be an incredible line up of music.
I’ll [...]

So tomorrow is the last Acoustic Edinburgh of 2008 and I’ll be opening the show with the amazing Tracey Braithwaite.  Really looking forward to it as it’s been a wee while since we’ve played together  (other than being on the telly as The Gospel Truth Choir)! If you fancy a laugh, here we are:
