Where better to start the year than on tour in Germany, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. There will be 16 gigs from the 16th of January to the 16th February, there will be at least 16 songs in the set and you will have to be at least 16 to get in (although I can’t imagine that being a problem).

Music donations to the In Deep Music Archive are encouraged as […]

In the wake of the ongoing PledgeMusic scenario and the attempts to recover and honour the outstanding monies owed to all the artists and the music that the pledgers contributed to, we are left patiently wondering what the outcome will be as we hope for a sign that this can be resolved positively so […]
