I watched The Last Leg Christmas Special and at the end Jona Lewie came on and performed this Christmas classic!

I have a snoring dog at my side and I am sipping mulled wine.
What a great way to spend the evening...
Cheers!

Pacifisticuffs~ Diablo Swing Orchestra

I discovered this amazing band on Myspace quite a few years ago. Each album is different, challenging and exciting. This new album is no exception. I would love to see this band on tour in UK one day!

How good is this song?

I absolutely love it!!!!!!

Enter Shikari~ The Sights

I was driving home along a frosty road and I heard this wonderful song. I love this band! Hearing this has put me in the most excellent mood. That and my Gran phoning me unexpectedly from USA just to remind me how much she loves me. What a wonderful evening with the next episode of The A Word to look forward to too!

The Associates~ Party Fears 2

I absolutely loved The Associates and it was tragic that Billy Mackenzie died.
This is one of my very favourites!

It is funny how my mind suddenly recalls songs I haven't heard for years. When that happens I have to track the sing down and play it.

The December Quartets

I went to The Harrison on Saturday night to see The December Quartets. It is a tiny venue with a capacity of about 45. It was an incredible evening full of beautiful improvisation. Spyros Giasafakis is one of the members of the quartet. They improvise using vocals and very unusual instruments. It was a night to remember.
This is Spyros in action:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM9lYPZZUg4
