Here’s some tunes for you, recorded in between my remote working during the Covid 19 lockdown (early days here…)
Sundown in Santa Cruz and Bruce Richard Reynolds
25 minute live solo set – Delaware Slide, The 27, I’m On Fire, Sausalito, Ace Of Spades, Bruce Richard Reynolds
All dates either cancelled or subject to cancellation and change how. I’ll be doing the odd live stream on various platforms, and I’m also posting and sharing lots of vids and suchlike on the BBB Facebook page if you’d like a look 🙂
…up the Tyne Valley, just off the train at Corbridge…
So, I’ve been trying out an Acoustasonic. I figured it might save lugging a large acoustic guitar around as well as adding an alternative/lighter electric (telecaster) sound. Here’s a couple from it’s second outing – a gig at Barry’s place in Sunderland (Barry from The Futureheads). Covers I’m afraid.
I’m quite pleased, but I’ll not be retiring my Godin in a hurry…
I’m back at La Taverna for St Valentine’s night. What were they thinking…/
… and it looks like European tours will now not be financially viable due the new requirements resulting from the UK leaving the EU, so I’ll be sticking to UK dates for the foreseeable unless things work out better than expected or I come into money 😉
Meanwhile here’s a couple of tunes from the other weekend….
Back on the road from Jan 17th, solo, duo and band (Ma Kelly’s Boys). Check out the dates page .
