Hi all
Eek, how bad am I. Almost a year since I’ve made a posting!
I shan’t reflect on the highs of last year. It’s good to look back a little but far better to look forward. I will say that I’m looking forward to doing more performances this year of the Lady Day and The Pres show, which was really well received at last year’s Edinburgh Jazz Festival. Next performance is going to be at the Aberdeen Jazz Festival later this month with the wonderful saxophonist and 2013’s Scottish Jazz Award winner for Best Instrumentalist, Konrad Wiszniewski.
Another new show which has been in development and will be debuted at the same Jazz Festival in Aberdeen is the Jazz for Little Kids and Very Big Kids. This show is all about getting young kids into live music and, of course, jazz. We’ve got to keep developing our audience and you can’t start too early! The show’s going to be full of tunes from the kids movies, such as Monsters Inc, Toy Story, Cars, 101 Dalmatians, etc and I’m hoping the kids are going to get involved and maybe their parents, grandparents too. I’ve suggested to the guys that I’d like them to dress up for the show but I’m either going to have to use a very big carrot or an event bigger stick. Ha ha. Anyway, I’m really looking forward to this, it’s going to be great fun.
I’ve also had a bit of a revamp on the website and have a new page where I can start sharing lyrics and poetry that I’m writing. Would be lovely to have some feedback but please be kind. It’s funny but although I’m a performer, I feel more naked sharing my writing than I do getting on stage!
Please also sign up for the newsletter where I provide more info on what I’m up to, other jazz happenings, who I’m listening to, offers, etc.
Thanks for checking in and enjoy every minute of every day whatever you’re doing.
