… here’s your weekend mapped out:

If you live in or near Oxford, come to the James Street Tavern on Friday night and witness The String Project, Grandmas Hands and more for free, with new material, a new member and what looks like being a packed audience (get there early before they drink all the best beer).

If you live in or near London, come to the Fiddlers Elbow on Saturday night for The Filthy Spectacula, the incredibly named Wang Dang Doodle Band and others. Bring your dancing legs, your drinking liver, your singalong lungs and possibly an old-school Methodist to make sure you get home again.

If you live roughly halfway between the two, make a weekend of it and do both!

If you live in some woods by a small village near Reading, please stay out of shot when I’m finishing filming a music video on Sunday. Unless you’re, like, a deer or a raven or something.
