My first show of 2023 is with my flagship collab project @OpLightfoot. It's at Leaf in Liverpool - the venue where wrote the first lyric draft a decade a go!
It's always a pleasure to open this event to kick off the year! Expect lots of music, a dash of poetry & visuals too! 1/2

Thanks so much Tom, Steve, the FOTN moderators & wonderful folks that voted!
Thrilled that my solo track Sojourn is one of this week's Fresh Faves & great timing - a year to the day since an @OpLightfoot tune made it to the mixtape & got aired!
So, Happy Fresh on the Net Day!

It's #WorldPoetryDay, so here are a few works of ours that feature poetry!
The first is our piece Of the Earth feat. Ewa Ladkowska, who recorded her part in English, Polish & the original German. The text is borrowed from Mahler's Song of the Earth.
