THE VALIDATORS
This month The Vlads are back in the studio for some more album session. The current plan is to release a video "single" around November time and then the album actual in early 2016. You never know, it might happen! We've also got a CHRISTMAS SONG to record soon too, working title: "Roy Wood In The Blue Note".

TOTALLY ACOUSTIC
Last month we were graced with the MIGHTY presences of Ben Moor and Emma Kupa, and you can hear the rather wonderful results on the podcast, HERE:

That's the last gig for this series of Totally Acoustic, but there's one more podcast to come next month when I put together the end of season FINALE, and we're hoping to be back for the NEXT series around November.

AND FINALLY
John Dredge and I are currently filming some more short films which should be coming your way around September, but in the meantime you can enjoy the first episode of his new series of podcasts, HERE:

Finally, if you're in Birmingham on Friday night you might like to come to the Old Joint Stock Pub & Theatre where my sitcom pilot "My Boss Was In An Indie Band Once" (good title!) will be being performed as part of The Sitcom Trials! Full details HERE:

And I think that's more than enough for this time - thanks for listening!


Cheers,

Mark
