London, Leamington, York…….

Greetings all, Bryan here, hope it’s been a glorious year so far for you. How time flies – I can’t believe Autumn is already sharing a glass with the summer – and I dooo wonder to myself….. does the summer weep in defeat of the oncoming September, exhausted and broken? who knows, I certainly don’t. Welcome the mist and mellow fruitfulness, icy days and sharp skies, fire, snow and stars, beer and wine and nostalgia that breweth invigorating songs that can no longer be ignored, provoking a distant sense of romance long gone but yet still to come…….
Anyway I’ll stop there, I do actually love the summer also.

As you probably know we are preparing for three very special shows in September , where we will be playing “Sight Of Day” in it’s entirely amongst other classic Mostly Autumn. Tackling  the big tunes like Native Spirit and Sight Of Day is a very exciting proposition, as well as a challenge, can’t wait to see how they evolve “live”. If you can get to any of these shows I know they will be very special.

Livvy and I would like to thank everyone for all the good will messages about little baby Autumn, she’s all good and healthy thanks. There are rare but occasional moments of glass shattering vocal pitches coming from her already, she may have her daddy’s voice methinks 🙂 but it’s incredible having her around, we love every second.

Anyway, hope to see you soon
Cheers

Bryan
