Seasons Greetings folks! I hope you are all well. Me and my lovely band were recently involved in ‘Anthologies’ -a non-profit,voluntary project which works with musicians,promoters,venues and other individuals to capture unique performances by musicians who are based in Leeds or are visiting Leeds on tour. We were asked to play for a special ‘Christmas Anthologies’ which is raising money for a Charity called ‘Simon On The Streets’. Here’s our video-it’s of my newest song,’Blue’. You can head over to the Anthologies website and see performances from Hannah Peel,Sam Airey,Paul Thomas Saunders and many more here-
