May contain a heavy dose of Jim Kerr
I have been looking into various acts that I could either go and see later in the year or who I could see within the next several weeks. The gigs I have coming up are non-existent for April (my one April gig – Sarah Brown in Edinburgh – has been cancelled. Goddamn!) but I do…

It’s been over a year since I last saw my Warm Digits boys play so when I saw them announce this (see pic above) on their social media and that ‘early bird’ tickets were available, I had to have a look into seeing if it was affordable to steal a night away in Hartlepool to…
I first learned about these guys from listening to BBC Radio 6 Music. More specifically a guest DJ slot one day back in….2016, I think it might have been…? Or maybe 2017? Trying to do some research for this – it could have been as far back as 2015! Anyway, it was being hosted by…

Beauty and the Beast was fab. As was the Sunday birthday lunch. Weather was iffy but…meh. It’s Scotland. What are ya gonna do? Yesterday was the belated added bonus of my Warm Digits boys being on the radio doing a live session on BBC Radio 6 Music on Marc Riley’s show. They played The View…
Last night’s gig for me was as highly anticipated as the Scritti Politti gig was just a couple of weeks back. It has been somewhat of a slow burn in relative terms, my love for Field Music. Meandering through other channels. Initially coming via getting into Warm Digits – whom I first got to be…

I’m just going to show my dedication here…(and this has been while going through a period of not listening to you as much as I normally do! Just…bear that one in mind!)
