I am on the road. I play lounges, gardens, pubs, cafes, sacred spaces, bandstands, woods, car parks or almost anywhere for the cost of travel and some working pay. Candle-lit folk hymns, apocalyptic blues, poetry, radical imagination; community mapping, grief and wonder. See bookings and let’s brew something good.

Hymns for Nomads vol 2 is a new collection of folk hymns and spirituals. Oddly gentle amidst the sound and fury. A space to feel deeply, to gather the quiet embers, and to lean toward that most healing posture, of kindness.

I designed this Messianic Mapping Quadrant during the pandemic to give shape to some of the lessons of the time, and to help myself and others find a sense of orientation towards alternative futures.
