Thrilled,  to be involved in the upcoming Strange Angels album in tribute to the legendary blues musician Elmore James.

Summer UK & European Tour - That's a Wrap.

2017TOUR.jpg

That's a wrap......

We finished up our UK/European summer tour this last weekend in Glasgow!

We played 26 shows across 12 countries performing in idyllic locations from beach sides, to forests,

to festivals, to racecourses, to arenas and magnificent Roman amphitheatres, it truly was a joy to experience!

 

I would like to take this opportunity to thank my marvellous team, my outstanding band

and extend my thanks to Into The Ark, who joined us on the road to open up some of our shows.

It was a real treat to get to perform with Taylor & Dane and see them grow as artists on this tour.

BIG things are coming for these boys!!

 

Lastly but most importantly, I would like to say a huge heartfelt thanks to all my fans who came along to the shows,

you really brought the energy and party each and every night!

Without your continued support I wouldn't be still doing what I LOVE!

So until the next time, take care.

 

Onwards to the US tour starting next month!

See you soon x
