This has been another absolutely amazing week, jam packed full of music! The highlight was my gig in London, which was my favourite gig ever and hopefully is going to lead to bigger opportunities in the future!
Monday: Monday started off terribly, as I was involved a in minor car accident on my way to tennis! Definitely wasn’t the best beginning to the week, but despite being very stressful, no one was hurt thankfully! I then had my production lessons at Manchester MIDI School, which was really fun! The best part was the evening though as my best friend had bought us tickets to see Astrid S at Gorilla for my birthday! The gig was absolutely amazing and I was pleasantly surprised to see the support was Taya, who I am also a fan of! Perfect end to a day that started terribly!
Tuesday: I was mainly rehearsing and packing for my trip to London, but I also was ordering supplies for the music video we’re shooting next week! Without giving too much away, the video is for a collaboration I’ve done with Mansfield based artist, Sophie Smith. Some of the supplies include balloons, confetti, glitter and T-shirts…. but I’m not saying anymore just yet!
Wednesday: Best day of the week as it was my gig in London! I was performing at Underbelly in Hoxton Square with my guitarist George. It was an amazing crowd and I really enjoyed myself up onstage! I enjoyed working with the promoter and am hoping to announce another London gig soon! Check out some pictures below and the Facebook live video… high quality vids will be coming soon too!
Thursday: I spent the daytime in Camden Town, which is one of my favourite places in London and then I headed to Bath to visit my brother!

Friday: On Friday I was chilling in Bath for my brother’s birthday! Had a bit of a day off from work and went out for a couple of meals and went on a night out in the evening!
Saturday: I had the long journey back to Manchester and used that time to get some work done on the train!
Sunday: I’ve used today to prepare the studio space for next week and to sort out some final arrangements for the video shoots!
