Recovery Day Off Waffle
Just a dud day off and so wanted to waffle to somehow feel ‘productive’ whilst not feeling able to do much else… (it was recorded on my iPad rather than my phone so sorry for the shifting eyes).

Yes, I am VERY EXCITED! Hamish has a new single out called Big Cat Tattoos (which he’d played a few times during the gigs I’ve been to) – and a new album drops on 16 August called A Firmer Hand, available in various formats.
