Excited to be doing a live session on Sue Marchant’s ‘Big Night In’ on BBC Radio Cambridgeshire, Norfolk, Essex, Suffolk and three counties at 9pm this Friday September 21st. I’ll be playing tracks from ‘Reminders’ and chatting to Sue about my career and upcoming homecoming headline at Bicycle Shop Norwich. Tune in if you can and there will also be a listen again link.
Thanks also to Concrete for this piece about the upcoming homecoming headline at The Bicycle Shop, Norwich.
Brand new live video! some clips from my set at Weyfest music festival.
Happy September everyone! Looking forward to playing the Rustic Stage at Weyfest tomorrow. Also very excited to share another new video, this time from the excellent Balcony TV on a glorious day in Brighton. Playing ‘Summer on the L’ on my gorgeous Baby Taylor. The song is all about taking the L train to and from Brooklyn and is from the new EP ‘Reminders’.
New video – Interview and performance of new song ‘Dreaming in Crowds’ which is all about working hard to chase your dreams no matter how hard. From the new EP ‘Reminders’ ~ enjoy! Thanks so much to Clive Swersky at Alive with Clive for posting and for his kinds words calling me ‘sensational and spellbinding!’
Very exciting news! ‘Reminders’ was played on the legendary ‘Whispering’ Bob Harris show on BBC Radio 2 this weekend! It was lovely to hear Bob say that they love my music at the show and that there is a ‘fantastic warmth’ to my music. Coming from a radio legend like Bob, that’s truly an honour!
You can listen again online until this coming Saturday night by clicking the link below. I’m played between The Temper Trap and Judie Tzuke.

Excited to share with you all a brand new video for my song ‘Reminders’ ~ filmed on an authentic steam train! please like, comment or share if you fancy!
Check out this really lovely new interview with the excellent Proper Music blog about my passion for music and early music influences and inspirations. Talking about music is one of my favourite things to do and here I discuss how my mum and dad’s eclectic taste opened up a whole new musical world and how seeing favourite male songwriters Neal Casal and Boo Hewerdine inspired me to get out there and do it on my own. Previous artists interviewed for this Waking the Muse feature include Eve Selis, June Tabor, Seth Lakeman and Gretchen Peters so am in illustrious company!
Excited to announce a very special intimate homecoming headline gig at the cool Bicycle Shop, Norwich! This will be the first home city gig since headlining Norwich Arts Centre for the Clouds with Silver tour (and where Lisa Redford Live album was recorded).
Date: Thursday October 4th.
