I wrote a little something for the 100th edition of Neil's @trustthedoc.bsky.social excellent blog. In it you can learn something about Neil himself. One of the reasons why this edition is so long is because he does so, so much for #grassrootsmusic ♥️🎶 demerararecords.com/trust-the-doc/

Huge thanks to Neil @trustthedoc.bsky.social for playing 'Lessons' three times on his radio show on exilefm.com. Amazing to hear it played live alongside other artists, and some pretty big ones at that. Also discovered @barrelhaus.bsky.social and #Greer, two acts I really loved the sound of.

Nice words about our new single from @foxreviewsrock.bsky.social - check out their site - loads of great stuff on there 👊
