Headless spade - yes, that's it. I think Bill Wyman played a Steinberger, didn't he?

Lou Reed/Steinberger. Even when the VU reformed, if I remember correctly.

This is on Thursday in Southend. Me and Pete will toss a coin for who plays last. We will also play a few together. I might bias my set towards my Essex Arms album.

I had immense fun making this record

Happy memories of that album. Was it really that long ago? New Ghostwriter album due later this year Suzy Mangion Michael Weston King Andrew Rumsey

The re-release of our 2008 debut, remastered and ready for a new audience (or the same one, just a little older and wiser)

It's finally happening... I'm getting back onstage, after 10 years... knees a-shaking, heart a-bursting, ready to sing to you again. Back at Red Deer Club, after all this time, for their birthday celebration. And it's FREE! (donations welcome)

There’s a 1978 sound isn’t there, a sound that characterises music made the that was completely unaffected by punk? A sound that elicits a ‘that’s absolutely from 1978’ response. I don’t even understand what I mean by that, but it’s Bill Fay so it doesn’t matter.

'...this is something uncut by ambition and fashion' Jeff Tweedy. Lovely piece by Daniel Dylan Wray about the very great Bill Fay theguardian.com/music/2024/feb…

It's finally out! Our remastered and reissued debut, This Is The Sound Of The Winter Journey. Digital download & limited edition handprinted CD available from Turning Circle at thewinterjourney.bandcamp.com Serenade the end of winter and a new beginning!

I am so happy to finally re-release this album to a wider audience. The Winter Journey is myself & Anthony Braithwaite, we released our debut album in 2008, and things got stalled, as you know. But we're back, and a new album finally out later this year.

First 'all in the studio together' Fariña session for 18 years

Today my darling son Felix should have been 27 but he died in 2017, of #SUDEP - sudden death in epilepsy. Every year I do a tweet on his birthday, in the hope that one day, such senseless deaths will be prevented. Pls RT SUDEP Action Young Epilepsy Epilepsy Action Ben Bradshaw

This exhibition by Kath Hadden well worth a visit. 365 little paintings, one for each day of 2023: kathhadden.co.uk/exhibitions

Looking forward to this one Johnnie Johnstone

I've woken up to a world of snow. The kind of day I was thinking of when putting together Days Lost To Snow. Here is one of the snowiest videos, for the title track. One that is full of longing, that starts 'will I play with them in the snow...?'. Enjoy the day.
