New Year New Music... & adventures with Adventurers
New Year - New Music! I’m putting out a single ‘I Love You Too’ (No, not the band) on St Valentine’s Day, and a new album called ‘Woodstock’.

Going to India to study music
I am going to India tomorrow, 2nd Jan. I won an Arts Council NI bursary for a month in an artist retreat with the Shruti Foundation in Rajasthan. I will be immersing myself in my music and that of Indian folk music. My work with the Orchestre des Refugies et Amis has brought me into contact with many wonderful flavours of “world music”. Thanks to Darren Ferguson from Beyond Skin I got to work with the wonderful Amita Ravikiran from India who now lives in Belfast. I’m very in
