On stage in York
The Theatre@41 Monkgate in York was a lovely venue to play and the support we had and the people we met that night were warm and friendly and chatty. A truly lovely evening.

Banbury Samaritans were definitely in the running for the most smiley of all. Lovely show at the Mill Arts Centre, Banbury.
Amazing night with...
RecRock in Wales
What a wonderful time we had in Wales at Blackwood Miners' Institute near Caerphilly with support from music social enterprise RecRock and Newport & Gwent Samaritans.
The very special
Suicide Memorial Quilt

All the kit in the van
We had discussed the packing plan many times. Sometimes it was perfect. Others not so much.

It was a warm day and a warm welcome for us at Swindon Arts Centre.
Matt finding peace
On a bench in Bracknell
It's important to sit on a park bench sometimes and just breathe.

Soundcheck in Bracknell
The set up and soundcheck is vital. Bob is a master at all the technical bits and we couldn't have done it without him.

Opening night
In Derby
Kicking off the tour in our hometown of Derby was a blessing. The audience at Deda was a full blown majestic beast and to play for them was a privilege.
