In school, I always used to draw cartoons. Since getting a stylus for my Apple® iPad™, I’ve started doing it again. I will start posting some of them here on the blog.

And sometimes I wear stripes.
Sometimes I wear spotty shirts
And sometimes just plain white.

Hello there, everyone.
I have three things I’d like to tell you.
1. My new website is all up and running. The address is longsongs.co.uk and you can stream all my music as well as download it for however much you decide to pay for it. You can even pay nothing if it suits.
2. The new EP is coming along nicely and the tracks are all mastered and ready to go. I am just waiting for the artwork to be finalised (it’s being done by this man, if you’re interested). Once that’s done, I’ll get them printed up and set a date for the launch gig. I expect it to be out before the end of the year and I’m working on a music video for one of the tracks, which I hope to finish soon.
3. I have a couple of exciting gigs on the way. I’ll be playing some of the new songs and you’ll be able to say hello afterwards, if that appeals. One of them is on Saturday the 17th of September at Southsea Fest in Portsmouth, so if you fancy both a day by the sea AND listening to music by me and plenty of brilliant others, it’s a dream scenario for you. If that’s a ginormous inconvenience, you could always come to my gig at The World’s End in Finsbury park, which I’ll be playing alongside a few other excellent singer-songwriters. It’s free and there’ll be sweets to eat and paper to doodle on while you listen.
Bye for now.
