As you may have already heard, on June 17th, my band Blooming Heads are playing another full band set at Cafe Colonial, for 916GG PRIDE SHOW 2026. Tickets available here.
My drummer’s band, Ash & Violets, are also playing. And so are my friends Lucy Broom and CJ Lawrence.
But the other thing about Ash & Violets… is that I am filling in for them on bass… and, therefore, am playing bass for the first time in a decade… how am I doing so far? 🙂
