Sunday 31 March 2013

Greetings,

Thanks to all those who came down to the Purcell Room, SouthBank on March 15th to watch Solus3 and special guest Damo Suzuki. We had a great night.

I'm currently out on tour with Marti Pellow. I first worked with Marti on 'The War Of The Worlds' late last year, and was asked to join him to do a series of theatre concerts around the UK to promote his latest solo album, 'Hope', which is a beautiful collection of show tunes.
The concerts are very intimate, and there are only six of us on stage. I get to play both harp and percussion, which always makes me happy.
The band comprises of Grant Mitchell on piano, Joe Downard on bass, myself, Adam Goldsmith on guitar and Chris Jerome on keys. So far gigs are being warmly received, and hats off to Marti for carrying the show off....not an easy job.
Shortly after finishing on the 'Hope' tour, I am off  to work with Rod Stewart, something which has only been in the pipeline for a couple of weeks. Very exciting, and all quite sudden, so it's a quick turn around, just time to repack my suitcase before heading out to LA to rehearse for the 'Live The Life' tour which is traveling around the UK this coming June and also in November.

Dates will be going up on the 'Live' page just as soon as I get organised.

Take care,

with love,

Julia
