So after a 3 hr. flight delay in SF, I made just in time to play my first venue in London on Sat. 6/26, Lemon Monkey. Made some new fans as well as sold the first few advance copies of my new album, Wrecking Ball at the Concert Hall. Yes that's the title, and I'm releasing it over here first before doing the same in the states in a month or so.
Many thanks to Josephine and Matt for letting us crash for the evening and showing us the true mixology of 69 Colebrook Rd.-amazing!
We then headed South to stay with our family friends, who have treated like royalty for real. Took a day to go down and check out the coastal town of Brighton, which reminded me of a hopping riviera beach town. Full of art and funky shops, def. have to go back. Tonight I just played the 2nd show at a venue which was really 2 venues in one. The Grey Horse is the front bar/stage, and in back is Ram Jam, a sweet little room that holds no more than 100. Had a great time thrown' down some jams there. Seems like a cool and supportive singer/songwriter community in the Kingston area of London. Tomorrow it's off to the north to Leeds, were I'll be the featured artist of the evening at a place called Ward Robe. Lugging a guitar and my merch around is tougher than being here without it, but well worth is so far!!
