Spotify is a horrible platform in so many ways. People should consider if they're ok using it. We use Tidal in the shop for streaming and are really happy with it. Some of the staff use Qobuz at home. Spotify sounds terrible and their ethics are disgusting.

I’m not a fan of having to drive down to Devon and back twice in 5 days, but the timing was at least perfect to give me 8 hours to listen to this beautiful new @theshipbuilders.bsky.social album, This Blue Earth. Go buy it, if you haven’t already.

Working out all the chords, alternate tunings and lyrics for performing this next week has been no small amount of work so if a promoter somewhere else wants to put on a small show of me performing Essex Arms I might be interested.

Where do folk go for Sunday roast in Newport city centre these days? Particularly with a good veggie option. It’s feeling an increasingly impossible mission.

If you know, you know

Wish I’d have been listening to @mrjamesob.bsky.social live today, talking about the antisocial behaviour of people on public transport. This John Mouse song has the perfect response - play them at their own game. johnmouse.bandcamp.com/track/and-th...
