Went to watch John Woods aka Jacques Cachecarte of Echolalia fame play his first solo gig in 25 years last night. Here’s one of his most recent songs, a photo of him and also one of a surprise reunion of 4/6 of Echolalia!

It seems this week’s #AlphabetChallenge #WeekUforUnloved is basically asking for a repost of this image from last week…

If you see this, post an album cover with a motor vehicle on it.

(Missed an open goal there, @sprungatom.bsky.social 😉)

The final instalment is ‘This Is Not The End’, which brings Wilf back to Blighty; the north east of England to be precise. books2read.com/b/m00DAA

Next up is ‘How Green Are Your Eyes’, which sees Wilf cross the Irish Sea and encounter the Most Drunk Stop Go Sign Wielding Man In The World ever, amongst other characters, some of whom are less than savoury. books2read.com/b/bPGOPl

The Broken Bottle is the first in the trilogy; trailer below. Set in the North West of England, with a cameo from a quite famous Mancunian band.

More from The Horn… the second half of ‘Another Island’, filmed by Darcy Louch, a singer I have had the pleasure of backing on stage over the past year or so.

Thoroughly enjoyed singing my Lovesongs from the North at The Horns in St. Albans this evening, and lovely to see @therichastill.bsky.social too!
