Hello, I played my biggest gig yet this weekend at Harvest on Jimmys farm in Suffolk. 10,000 people went down for the weekend at the sold out festival and me and my band opened the show for their first ever festival and was introduced by Jimmy himself.

For those of you that haven’t seen the TV series, Jimmy is a childhood friend of TV Legend chef Jamie Oliver who campaigns against processed food in schools and against unhealthy diets in the UK. Jimmy is a ‘rare breed’ pig farmer and ‘Jimmy Doherty’s Farming hero’s’ is a show on BBC 2.

Made lots of new friends and watched brilliant sets by indie folk cool cat Jose Gonzalez, the very beautiful and charismatic KT Tunstall, the legend and personal favourite of mine Badly Drawn Boy, other-worldly violin extaordinaire Seth Lake man (who I had never heard before but am now a big fan) and soul singer Sam Lewis, KT Tunstall’s guitarist as well as loads of other cool artists.
