Next week I will be supporting the remarkable, spellbinding, wonderful, guitar-maestro, singer-songwriter John Smith on two dates of his UK tour, before he goes on to support BellX1 on their European tour!

So Brighton folk, we will be playing on Sunday 21st Nov at the Unitarian Church, Brighton (click here for tickets)

And Londoners, on Tuesday 23rd Nov we’re hitting the Vortex in Dalston, London (tickets here)

It would be lovely to see you if you can make it along!

Lots of love

“John Smith is a guitar man from Devon, quietly becoming recognized as one of the most exciting voices on the British Folk scene. He has supported John Martyn, Iron and Wine, Seth Lakeman, Davy Graham, John Renbourn, David Gray, Cara Dillon, Martin Carthy, Jools Holland, Tinariwen and Kelly Joe Phelps, among others.

He has two records out, Map Or Direction (2009) and The Fox & The Monk (2006).”

“Brilliant” **** MOJO

“Utterly engrossing, earthy and compelling” **** R2

“Map Or Direction finds his own unselfconsciously mythic songwriting bolstered by rippling guitar parts and a wounded-bear bray. Great things are ahead” The Sunday Times

“Spellbinding” Time Out

“A guitar genius…He sounds as though he arrived 60 years ago but looks startlingly young, perched on a chair, quietly confident, charming and instantly engaging.” The Sun
