Meeting Dan Cassidy!

Recording at Monnow Valley starts on May 25th and we are now tantalisingly close to reaching £1000 in album preorders, thank you so much!  If you haven't bought a copy yet and you are planning on getting it at some stage, please order it now as you'll really help in the production of the whole thing :)  Head to my 'New Album' page for all the details.

On Friday evening I headed down to Southampton to see James Hickman and Dan Cassidy perform an intimate folk club gig.  What an incredible evening!  Their performance was brilliant and hilarious (great stage banter), I got to hang out with them when they weren't on stage, and I even played a few tunes myself before they went on :)  Best of all was getting to perform 'Fields of Gold' with Dan on violin, which, as you probably know by now, will be on the album!!  Still can't quite believe it!  After the show I spent an incredibly relaxing and cake filled weekend with Tilly (of Tilly's song) and family, so life is pretty peachy!

Big News!! I have been booked to play on the BBC stage at Wychwood Festival on May 31st, yehaaaaa!  I'm on at 1pm for a half hour slot, so make sure you don't miss me.  Also on the BBC stage that day are some pretty big names - Hot Feet, Emily Barker and Young Cato but to name a few.  Then on June 2nd I'm performing at Harrogate festival in Yorkshire :)

Don't forget to get your tickets booked for my Subrooms gig on June 20th as it's gonna be a really good one and over half of the tickets have already sold!  Head to my events page for more details :)

That's all for now.  Keep eating the avocados.

Hattie xx
