Located on Bishopgate near to Liverpool St Station, St Ethelburgas Centre for Reconciliation and piece has become known as a beautiful venue for world music in London. The original St Ethelburgas was destroyed by the IRA bomb in 1993 – it was rebuilt as a multi-faith centre. It’s really a great venue and this should […]
Thundercat – The Golden Age of Apocalypse Mind blowing debut from Stephen Bruner alias Thundercat. Part of the incredible scene around guys like Flying Lotus and Miguel Atwood Ferguson in LA at the cutting edge of jazz, hip-hop, electronic music, dance music and the avant-garde, The Golden Age of the Apocalypse features layers of melodic […]

We play songs from Greece and Turkey and the Balkan regions. […]

Came across a DVD of this jam/gig from that summer. I had a few weeks in LA taking private lessons and then took a week’s summerschool at LA Music Academy – I got so much from the private lessons in particular and the chance to focus exclusively on music for a month or so. I’m […]
Put this up on my Posterous but it probably deserves a home here too! I am the least likely person to promote Facebook and I took some convincing from the guys in the band to adopt this tool but I have to say it’s been a huge success. We opened a group in the band […]
