A taster of a new song I've written with Isla Cowan for our new show, whatever that may be! About someone at the end of the earth, looking back on the simple things that we take for granted. 'A Boring Afternoon'.

I made a song about the arms trade and the two very different sides of the transaction, it's called Merchandise For Murder, from my album A State Of A Nation, available at the usual places.

Enjoyed yesterday's performance of @andymcgregor.bsky.social's Meme Girls @playpiepint.bsky.social very much. Story of two 'outsider' schoolgirls who form a bond through a love of music and the challenges they face as they try to build a career. Great performances from Jana Harris and Julia Murray.

I was watching this last night and was really struck by how all the properties were owned by English people. And even the judges were English and/or v middle class. But the guy they got to show 'the other side' doing the cleaning etc was Scottish.

Why do we do this to ourselves?

I made a little video for my website showcasing what I do.

I'm lucky to be pretty busy this year but still have some gaps to fill later in the year if anyone is looking for a director, writer and/or composer!

Hi folks, I checked with the relevant authorities and it's apparently ok to start drinking Shloer now. You have a 30 day window. Enjoy.

6 months ago I would have bet you £1728292 that The Unknown would be featuring in every panto in the land.

I doubt anyone is actually doing it now....feels like a century ago!

I was asked to write a song for A Play a Pie and a Pint's 20th anniversary. Attempted to tell the story of the Scottish theatrical institution, whilst also namechecking as many plays as I could...and hopefully be funny too....

My boy is playing Fortnite and I heard him just say, "Is that Princess Diana?" and, to be honest, I wouldn't put it past them.
