Pinchbeck Fun Day Fete, New Backdrop, Filming, Much More!

9
July

Hey folks, hope you’re all enjoying the sunshine for the 3 days we’ll have it this year…

Just a quickie update while I have a few minutes going begging.

HUGE thanks to the nice people at the Pinchbeck Fete for inviting me to come play some harp guitar – we had a lovely day for it and I met lots of new people doing so. Thanks to all of the organisers, everyone involved and of course everyone who came 🙂

Also, MASSIVE thanks to Jesse Coleman for hooking me up with an awesome new filming back drop! Head over to my Facebook page www.facebook.com/tommyandchums to have a gander. I’m crazy busy with teaching, gigging, wedding planning and various other things right now, but the new video series is well and truly on it’s way, I promise!

I have several gigs coming up over the summer, more TBA as I get booked up. The album is still in the pipeline too, don’t think I’ve forgotten 😉 Time, time time…

Also last but not least, I will be running a competition each month or two to win a free Skype or in person guitar lesson if you are nearish to me – more details to follow!

Cheers for now everyone, take care!

Plectrums Have Landed – Newspaper Cutting from Wisbech Festival – Upcoming Gigs – NEW Video Series’ – The Incident Involving An Oven Ready Chicken….

June

….Except for the chicken thing, I have updates on a whole load of things!

First of all, my new lovely plectrums have arrived from Dovetail HQ today, thanks a million to Craig and all the nice folk at the company – have started using them already and they already feel like an old friend 🙂

Also, my mush got featured in the paper yesterday following the Wisbech Festival last weekend – head to www.facebook.com/tommyandchums to see pictures etc of both of these things!

My next gig is at the Acoustic Cafe in Spalding, South Holland Center. I have a new set prepared and will be playing alongside some other great acts – Monday 17th June at 7pm – hope to see some friendly faces there 🙂

ALSO – I have been beavering away in the studio and after locking myself away for many hours to rehearse and scheme, I’m very excited to announce that my Youtube channel will soon be flooded with new videos, including a very diverse range of music – expect some surprises 🙂

The chicken thing had practically nothing to do with me either

Cheers everyone!

Wisbech Festival – Upcoming Gigs – Plectrum Endorsement – New Videos!

June

Heads up everyone, hope you’re all enjoying the sunshine!

Firstly, thanks to all who attended the Wisbech Festival on Sunday – well over 1,000 people attended the event throughout the day and I was honoured to be asked to play – aside from a few technical issues, everything went well and I look forward to coming back to Wisbech in November as part of my ‘Nearly Unique’ Autumn 2013 tour 🙂

Also, the nice people at Dovetail have been cool enough to hook me up with some custom plectrums! These will be up in the merch store very shortly, along with some other goodies

I’ve just done a huuuuge update on gigs (well, 4) on the tour page, see if I’m coming to your town!

And finally, I have been locked away in the studio beavering away plotting my next few moves this year, and I can reveal that not only will there be several more harp guitar videos coming soon, BUT – there will also be a whole bunch of other mini series’ running alongside it!

After much teaching over the years, I’ve found I’ve not always remembered to play for myself as much – well, this will prove to everyone, but most of all myself, that I can still keep at a good level, whilst chucking in some teaching videos in the process. Much more to come on this very soon!

Cheers for now everyone, be nice to each other, I’ll see you round the bend
