Solo acoustic guitarist singer songwriter on the Isle of Wight.
Andy Roberts offers a professional, good-vibe act engaging listeners in a meaningful musical journey through a blend of catchy originals and well chosen 70s covers
Back from a lovely and relaxing week's break on the other side of the Island.
Drove a hire car for the first time in over a decade. The combination of an automatic handbrake and manual gear change is crazy. I lay awake at night trying to figure out how to do a hill start without rolling backwards.

Reviving old songs and cultivating new ones, all while dodging ladders and embracing chaos! Today's prep: blending Elvis (C) and The Beatles while pondering cider-making post-gig. Also, planning how to grab life's fruits and bagging manure. Rock and roll gardening life! 🍏🎸

Today is a rest day.
A chance to recharge and let the day unfold naturally.
I shall let things flow as they come. This spontaneity, with allowance for unplanned moments, feels quite sufficient for now. It’s all about finding balance and respecting the need for rest without rigid structures.

Morning pages back on track, digging deep into life's big questions! Balancing gigs, homesteading, and John Lennon Day rehearsals. Sometimes spinning plates, other times breaking through small-town dreams. Now, time for music, reflection, and maybe... pickleball? 🎶🌱

Sitting brings peace, but the ticking clock haunts me. A show to rehearse, apples to juice, wine to ferment. Life's distractions pull me from my art. How do I balance love and solitude, tasks and leisure? The eternal struggle of a creative soul.

Great comments, thanks and appreciation voiced in person, but no published reviews of any kind.
So the legacy is that it looks on media just like it never even happened. I'll need to try and fix this for September.
