Apple Festival Gig

I’m playing a gig next Saturday 15th October at a wonderful festival just outside Brighton called Apple Festival. I will be doing it on Saturday at about 1pm and it will be a Broken Jukebox session. Every song is improvised from audience suggestions, so there is enormous potential for failure. If you think it would be fun to see someone not succeed in public, on a stage, I recommend that you...

In the evenings, after a hard day fighting mean timpani, killer bassoons, and Purple Fiends, I have been gently putting this mixtape together. It’s on a deep tip (like an iceberg) so put it on while you cook or do the ironing, or whatever the heck it is you get up to, weirdo!

School of Lego I led a team of young secondary school students in making this film. I basically just helped them solidify the script and then stepped back and let them get on with it! They did a bang up job, I’m sure you’ll agree. The best thing is it’s been nominated for a First Light award in the Best Animation category! This means we’ll get to go to the awards ceremony...

Alvaro got in touch with me and jokingly asked me for a birthday song.

This is a song I made for my friend Alex Oliver for her birthday. I think it’s pretty epic! To celebrate her birthday we all went bowling and then to karaoke, which I’d never been to before, and it was some of the most fun I’ve probably ever had. Except for Chessington, obviously. Happy Birthday Alex!
