I am pleased to say things are moving again with Red Over Red.

Studio time is booked for later this month for @singingconductor.bsky.social to lay down his vocals for two new songs and @closetotheedge.bsky.social is working remotely on the bass parts.

More sad news. Drummer Gilson Lavis has died at the age of 74. I saw him a couple of times with Jools Holland's Rhythm and Blues Orchestra, what a superb musician he was.

November 5th usually remembered for the Gunpowder Plot but on 5th November 1688 the same sectarian strife led to William of Orange landing in my home town of Brixham and going on to take the throne as William III the following year.

We are off to see @theblackheartorch in Honiton on Saturday.
It was a tossup between this show and the one in Tavistock.

If you are off to Tavistock It looks like the show has been moved from Tavistock Wharf to Brentor Village Hall and tickets are still valid according to Blackheart's Facebook.

#np Sandy Denny and the Strawbs - "All Our Own Work"

Highly formative work (There's almost a New Seakers sound to some tracks) but you can sense the direction of travel for both parties.

It’s not always glamorous. But it’s the only reason some venues are still here. A saved gig is great. A saved building is better. That’s why we’re here. Support the work of our support team via bit.ly/MVTsupport now. Because this matters.

Most venue closures don’t happen because no one turns up. They happen because someone bought the building next door, submitted a planning application, and didn’t want to hear people milling around after 10pm.

Happy Samhain, this sacred festival has been cheapened into scary thrills and plastic tat. The ancient festival is about illness and death, the ancestors and the spirits that haunt our minds and our land. As we descend to the dark, let us embrace it #dartmoor #devon #halloween #samhain #photography

Always take a punt on a support act. Get in the venue early, and give them your attention. Because the future you care about is playing those sets tonight.

Support the support bands. Protect venues. Protect the future.

Also that extra drink purchased at the start of the night helps the bottom line, when some venues are operating on less than a 1% profit margin.

Folk Rock. Folk duo’s last stand in the midst of crisis. This one’s heavy, in the best way. Heartbreak never sounded so electric. Perfect final statement.
