First, a bit more about my upcoming exhibition at Deda in Derby.
It will run from January the 6th to March 7th.
The launch will be on Saturday the 11th of January from 6-30pm to 8pm.
I will be doing a short percussion solo as part of the launch.
The work will be all 2-D, mainly mixed media, but also some collographs, acrylics and pure collages. There will be more than 40 pieces of work on show.
Deda is on Chapel Street, the Cathedral Quarter, Derby, DE1 3GU
Please try get along. Everyone most welcome. It’s free of course and you get a glass of wine!

On Thursday January 23rd I will be playing at OTT in Sheffield in a trio with Mick Beck on saxophones and whistles and Alan Halsey, voice.
The gig is at OTT, 78, Kingfield Road, Sheffield, S11 9AU, and begins at 8pm.
The set will be based on found text that I bought from a car boot sale. It’s a book with details of railway systems in the old mines in Derbyshire.
Hope to see you there.

On Tuesday March 17th , I will be playing at Fizzle in Birmingham in a quartet, with Bruce Coates on saxes, Sarah Farmer on violin and Lee Boyd Allatson on percussion and electronics. I too will be playing on percussion and electronics.
Fizzle is at the Lamp Tavern, 157, Barford Street, Birmingham, B5 6AH, and begins at 7-30pm.
