MY AUTUMN DONE COME
Summer is dwindling and the skies are forming mottled clusters; a feral, vicious squirrel is teetering on a branch of our oak, barking and squeaking, perhaps the last dying echoes of a desperate mating call or just at war with it’s own mind. I can relate.
My preparations for the European / UK tour are currently underway, navigating the usual treacherous waters of trying to stay under budget. Yep sadly it’s not as easy as it was touring Europe…can you work out why? Answers on a postcard to hell. Wow I’m in a sardonic mood this morning. Hello!! Still It’s going to be a fantastic tour, I’m so glad so many of the excellent artists I’ve worked with and who I count as good friends, are joining me on the road.
I have started a shop on Etsy, selling my ‘song’ paintings, if you haven’t had a chance, please check them out, they come with a typewritten lyric sheet and a new 4-track recording; it’s an artistic and financial enterprise that I’m quite enjoying, I also take commissions so send me a message and let me know.
This month I’m mainly in the Wolf Cabin, recording and producing other artist’s music. I also have a show next week at Hollands Farm, Great Milton, Oxfordshire in a little Tipi tent in the woods, with my dear pal Gerry ‘THE BEAR’ Atkins on trumpet – should be a great night, if you live in the area come one down, here’s a link to tickets: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/montgomeryconsulting/1345362 – then in October I head over to Cardiff to perform as a session player for a David Crosby tribute which should be quite fun – specifically his ‘If I Could Only Remember My Name’ solo album, with Mike Scott & The Staves amongst others… after that I’ll be back in Zurich performing with Annakin at a special themed event then back home and then it’s almost time for Christmas…holy moly!
See you down the road, hope all is well with you all
