Making music is a wonderful thing, sometimes you get to do things you never dreamed possible. Iin 2008 I remixed 'Youth' from Soft Cell's 'Non Stop Erotic Cabaret' an album I bought as a teenager. It's one of my productions I am proudest of. Dave Ball was a huge inspiration, he will be missed.

25 years ago today I arrived at Glastonbury to perform at the festival for the first time, playing bass for Badly Drawn Boy. There are no photos of me from that year but here are a few of The Memory Band late at night in a tent up at the Crows Nest, having a wonderful time. Photos by Helen Dulay

Last night was a memorable one. Performing at the magnificient St. Mary Magdalene church in Paddington with its amazing architecture and magnificent acoustics was something else and not only getting to witness Myriam Gendron's mesmerising set but also joining her onstage during her encore too.
