Gig review: Kathryn Williams & Withered Hand
Why should anyone care about small music venues? This is why. It’s a Tuesday evening in Durham, and the “sold out” signs are up. The Holy GrAle, one of the city’s classier bars, is welcoming Kathryn Williams and Withered Hand (Dan Willson’s stage name) as they promote their recent joint album. Both have played bigger venues than this, both have headlined on the folk festival circuit, so tonight is a rare chance to explore some new music in a different ambience.

Hello, Thanks again to everyone who attended and supported The Crosfield Hall acoustic night. It was one of the largest events that I have ever put on.

I Love The Rain
Things have cooled down here in Australia now that we’ve moved into autumn but that doesn’t mean the end to our summer rain. No, it can still periodically fall from the sky and most of the time I love it; although I don’t like the rain in winter when I’m already cold and miserable.
