Good morning, afternoon and evening from me in England!

As a musician and songwriter, I'm usually very active on the local live music scene and have played loads of gigs and festivals/events over the past 10 years.

Songwriters Cafe ~ Matlock Bath ~ Derbyshire ~ June 2019

The Dreaded Bat Flu has changed our lives and ultimately, stopped every single live event on earth. And unfortunately, I'm still recovering from the dreaded virus after contracting it 3 weeks ago.

Ready to play The Bodega in Nottingham last February, which was my LAST live gig

Time out to hike with the family, refocus and devise a plan is always a liberating experience in the great outdoors

Live streaming!
That's it, Live Streaming on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and the dreaded TIKTOK!
I may talk badly of TikTok but to be perfectly honest, it was an absolute saviour last year and helped me to buy some much needed audio equipment for my live streams.

This is what I bought with the money raised from the live streams last year

A great little set up with great sound!
Audio Technica AT2020 condenser mic
Behringer USB mixer, all the leads, headphones, ring light and guitar strings etc.*

So there you have it, I arrived back on the Blockchain sharing my music and hopefully, some good interesting music content.

Thanks to @musicforlife @brofund @blocktrades @acidyo @roelandp and everyone else for your ongoing support, it really means the world to me.
