Hi everyone
I’m playing at the Green Room in Altrincham tonight from 9pm (Thursday, 12th August 2010). It’s been a while since I’ve done a gig, so I’m looking forward to it. Here’s the address:
17 Goose Green
Altrincham, Cheshire WA14 1DW

Hello! There’s an exciting gig at Baa Bar, Fallowfield on Tuesday. It’s being put on by Silent Sara, in aid of the Red Cross.
The lineup is looking really good – it features seven acts, including Karima Francis, Kristyna Myles, Glyn Bailey, Robin Mukherjee, Risa Hall and Pavor Nocturnus. I’ll be playing a couple of songs too.
I think entry is by donation, 3 or 4 quid. Should be a really nice night. Things kick off promptly at 8pm…
Just a quick one – I’m playing at Contact Theatre, Manchester, 2pm today – as part of their Art Rumble event. It’s a free gig and there are art and craft stalls there too..
Loads more gigs to tell you about – will post another update later today….
Acoustic Eclectic with Tom Kerswill - Wed 25th Nov
Acoustic Eclectic is a lovely acoustic night at the Q-Inn in Stalybridge. I’m playing there tomorrow evening (Wednesday, 25th November). It’s a free night (donations welcomed). There’s an open mic beforehand, and I’d really recommend it as a place to play. Lovely friendly, audience, nice beers – a good night!
You can add yourself to the Facebook event or head over to the acoustic eclectic myspace page.
Just been asked to play a very last-minute gig at the Roadhouse in Manchester. I’m supporting Manchester electro band Bleachbaby and will be on stage 8pm…. tonight, Friday, 9th October… should be fun!
