Hi! I’m a consultant in public health (interests - data/PHM, health care public health and wider determinants)

Also enjoy music (partic indiepop, post rock, hyperpop and musicals).

Plus board games, computer games, astronomy and other stuff.
Still getting my thoughts together from The Autumn Store on Friday, but a huge thank you to everyone who came down and all the bands. I enjoyed the night so much and hope everyone else did too.

My phone was behind the sound desk most of the gig so only got a few pics

Bonus fact! We last played with then at a Fortuna Pop! night in London in 2007.

Excitingly, I’m supporting The Wave Pictures this Friday. It’s at The Hare and Hounds in Kings Heath and we have a tidy set of songs from the new album and last EP to play.

Fantastic Autumn Store gig with Fightmilk and The Proctors last night. The room was full of people enjoying themselves - and that is why I put on gigs! Both bands on their way up to the Edinburgh Indiepop Alldayer who are in for a real treat.

Just in case you wanted to see Healees twice, I’m putting them on in Brum the night before the Shoegaze all dayer. (Sorry it’s not usually my thing to respond to discussions from ages ago but thought it was worth me mentioning)

Gig news! Really excited to be putting on two Autumn Store gigs in October and November in Birmingham.

2nd October I’ve got Fightmilk and Wiiince at the Rock and Roll Brewhouse

7th November it’s Healees, The Leaking Machine and Kate Thompson & William William Rodgers at The Victoria. Plus dancing!

While I’m thinking about gigs, it’s only a week until the return of The Autumn Store - Friday 25th July in Birmingham. I’ve worked out how to DJ off a lap top especially.

Looking forward to playing at Pop at the Lock next weekend. I’m doing a short solo acoustic set of a couple of Falling and Laughing classics at 5.15.

Wait until The Independent finds out about the rest of the music industry!

Was a great set from The Leaking Machine (feat two members of Mighty Mighty) last night at the launch of Jenny’s Feather Factory records.

Having a band admin day, and so it would be remiss of me to not share the charmingly DIY poster and link to our gig in July! It’s only £5 (plus booking fee) because in my head it’s still 2010 and I priced the gig accordingly.

I’m putting gigs on again! First one is on Friday the 25th July.

Falling and Laughing have got a gig on Saturday afternoon at the Rock and Roll Brewhouse in Birmingham. Free in, and we’re supporting Spincycle who are also great! Really looking forward to this one.

@adamccresswell.bsky.social just going through old photos and found this! It was a great gig
February 22, 2025 at 4:47 PM
I don’t really talk about music on here but I probably should. Had lots of fun last night playing a gig in Cambridge, one of those nights where the room was full and friendly! Itching to play another gig now.

No, voice memo app, I appreciate you trying to transcribe but I don’t think that these are actually the lyrics to my new song

I got distracted by my old pot of badges earlier. Here’s the Birmingham selection (with a few additions from Cov and Bearwood).
