A classic Devon weekend: Friday talk in ancient stannary town Tavistock to the Devonshire Association; following by an outstanding Saturday gig by Chagford's own Dominie Hooper at the brillant community pub The Drewe Arms. Very special songwriting and absolutely electrifying live.
Photo of Tavistock parish church, grey and handsome. The cover of Dominie Hooper's debut album, In This Body Lives. It shows the artist stanging knee high in bracken, agaisnt a dark sky, with a gauzy light fabric? Smoke? floating above her head.

Het is misschien even wennen aan de behoorlijke donkere en soms wat tegendraadse songs van de Britse muzikante Dominie Hooper, maar luister wat vaker naar haar debuutalbum In This Body Lives en alles valt op zijn plek.

Spellbinding music rooted in folklore and drawing comparisons with PJ Harvey - Dominie Hooper + guests play The Rosehill on Thursday 22nd January.
Her songs simmer with raw intensity and lyrical barbs, blending growling cello, textured guitar, and collective vocals

Even if you don't pay for day or weekend tickets there is plenty of amazing music going on at the free gigs on the Boia trail.

We caught a hauntingly beautiful solo set by @dominiehooper.bsky.social in the Farmers and a cracking "secret" set by Fionn Regan in the bar of the The Bishops.
Wonderful.

I love this hairy bindweed - Calystegia x pulchra. I don’t see it very often at all - always feel thrilled when I see this lightly striped pink beauty

Conjuring an otherworld of doomy-droney guitars, gouging cello and ritualistic collective voice, Dominie Hooper is a singular force.

I’d really like a proper id for this large bindweed. The first two photographs were in a garden in Aberdeen and the other in LeightonBuzzard. Is it Calystegia pulchra or a pink form of C. sepium or C. silvatica. I absolutely love it. @wildflowerhour.bsky.social #pinkbindweed #wildflower
