United in Song in St Ives

It was a fabulous evening with a lovely audience at our gig in the St Ives festival.

 

Songbird Anna (Anna) and I met at a music night a few years ago and decided to collaborate (each doing our own set) for a gig at the St Ives September Festival. Our styles are different but we both  share a love of music and write our own original material.

We hoped our performance would  entertain and inspire the audience with stories of love and the things that have shaped our lives. The venue in the Western Hotel was intimate, the sound was good, we sold tickets  and the feedback was positive. We both look forward to being invited back next year!

For me, St Ives was the highlight of a very eventful two week road trip. It began with the Somerset Jazz festival (see the Tai Chi news), and continued into apples falling from trees in Glastonbury, to an encounter with the Highwayman on Dartmoor, and real-life smugglers in Penzance.

The journey home was relatively uneventful but did include an overnight stop reflecting on the bridge over troubled water!
