My darling bud of May – BBC CountryFile Festival

Published on: September 13, 2016

Thank you to BBC CountryFile for giving us the opportunity to play the first, of what I’m sure will be many, CountryFile festivals.

From the man who has arguably re-invented himself more than Prince and Bowie combined it was yet another demonstration of his flair & flounce. John Craven has yet again outdone even himself to carry off an impressive & hearty livestock show – somehow primitive yet sophisticated at the same time.

I particularly enjoyed the pointer dog sniffing out explosives, fortunately a demonstration in this case.

    Like Cook I was born in glamorous Middlesbrough and my middle name is dedicated to him, but I must confess to being a very fragile traveller.

Buoyed to hear Layers featured on Wednesday’s Late Junction by the legendary and daring Fiona Talkington.

Alot of people seem to be talking about the duo Water Pageant at the moment
Fiona Talkington, LATE JUNCTION, BBC RADIO 3

Honoured to share airtime with a playlist that quite frankly reads like the in-flight menu of a journey into a parallel universe: Tom Waits, Bartok , Jaga Jazzist, Sam Lee, Stephan Micus, Cork Gamelan Ensemble…
