Sign my guest book I want to know who you are!!
Maart is a fantastic musician who can play almost any instrument
really well and makes me spit!! He has accompanied many famous names
including Jethro Tull, Midge Ure, Danny Thompson and Ralph Mctell.
He also writes music and has written and played on many famous TV
themes. Check out his web site for even more famous things he's done!!
Would you believe Maart is a great cook too and bakes wonderful
bread, you can find recipes on his web site.
I first met Liz in Oz when I fell in love with Jigzag and their music. Liz has a solo CD out now which is just beautiful, Liz is beautiful!!
A good friend for many years. Julia has had some success including a hit single and appearances on TOTP. She has a gorgeous voice and also writes all her own stuff. Larry Klein, Joni Mitchels producer also produced one of Julias CD's. Julia now lives in Santa Monica give her voice a listen!
Where I made Blues Movin' In. A great studio, comes highly recommended by Maart Allcock and many others.
I saw Sugarland slim at Cropredy 2001 and ended up jamming with
them at the backstage party untill 7am. They are fabulous.
A Delta blues band with a big future. So young and sooo talented!
As far as I'm concerned, and I know many others share my view,
Keith is a genius. One of the best songwriters around.
He writes both serious and comedy songs. He has written for
Jasper Carrott and Phil Cool. His serious songs nearly always
make me cry. He is a brilliant performer, quite mad in fact.
Everyone who has ever been to a festival will have at some point
seen Keith in compare mode, including Glastonbury and Cropredy.
I met Rory at the Majors Creek Festival in Australia.
He went down a storm!! Rory has an amazing voice, think
Neil Diamond with mollasses and treacle poured on and great stage
presence. He's hoping to tour over here so check him out!!
My favorite cafe/bar/gig venue in the world. A cross between
Bagdhad Cafe and Northern Exposure. I had an amazing stay there
when on tour in New Zealand. If you are ever down there and can get
to the Mussel Inn, Takaka, South Island you are in for a treat!
Nice little shop in Warwick town centre for all your musical needs.
Every time I go in there I meet lots of people I know, so
always end up having a bit of a chinwag!! Pretty good for selling
and buying second hand equipment too.
Brilliant singer-songwriter, cool website. Anna has a unique
approach to songwriting and plays a multitude of instruments,
all brilliantly....spit again!
Luke Concannon and John Parker. Two young lads who write,
sing and play amazingly. They have a new CD out and its brilliant.
A three piece I fell in love with (so did the audience)when
I first saw them at a festival in Austalia. We've
since become friends and I love them more each time I see them.
Damon is fantastic. Great instrumentalist, great songs and a wild
and whacky stage presence. Another superb Australian performer.
Mike has a wonderful voice and writes beautiful songs that make me cry,
if he keeps practising he will be okay on the guitar too!! Tee Hee!!.
Kristina is hugely respected throughout the world for her songwriting,
singing and multi instrument playing.
A real roller coaster of emotions to watch her perform.
A very talented lady indeed.
I first met this band out in the Falkland Islands and we have been
firm friends ever since. Recently went to their 30th anniversary and
they played a storm!! Mad punk skiffle.

Original member of Waterfall

instrumentalist.
Wonderful studio based near Leamington Spa. Converted barn in a
country setting.
A web site featuring venues, bands and revues for the Bedford
area..mostly! I did a bit with Sugarland Slim on 12th November and
the reveiwer came along. He did a nice write up on me as well.Ta!
A great British web site for all things folk and more, lots of
links too. Run by someone who is very kind about my voice, so he gets
my vote every time!! Darren you are a man of infinite good taste.
I first met these guys at The National Festival in Canberra. I borrowed some wings for one night and had such a fantastic time I had to buy them. Good fun wearing them back to the UK. You have to visit this sight and get some fairy love in your life.
