At a punishingly hot @cecilsharphouse for the Jim Moray Festival, watching the incomparable @KittyMacfarlane being awesome. Later, @jimmoray and band (including @JonWilksMusic on bass). Can’t wait! #folk #tradfolk #folkmusic

Sharing the sad news that the gig in Bristol tomorrow with Karine has been cancelled, because Karine has lost her voice. We’re looking to reschedule this and will keep you abreast of this as soon as a plan is formed!
Sending lots of love to Karine for a speedy recovery.

So very sorry folks. My voice has given out in this withering airless heat and I can’t finish my current tour. Huge apologies especially to the good people of Worcester. I hope word reaches you all in time.
Please contact venues about fresh dates.
Thanks for your support.

Probably 'Glass Eel' by @KittyMacfarlane. I haven't yet heard it sans goosebumps. It carries stories both about conserving nature, and freedom of movement. It's a beautiful song and message, and perhaps particularly important in light of recent events.

Nice to get chance to explore some of the intertidal areas recently around Galloway between the storms. Brilliantly described as the 'daily archive' by @KittyMacfarlane (worth a listen if you like nice vocals and estuaries)
