A Direction Home :: 15 Mar 2025 – INTO THE WOODS

Forests and woods are emotive settings – a favourite for foweird fairy tales, runaway lovers, dark deeds and much mischief.  Let’s explore the possibilities together… who knows, maybe the direction home lies through one of these forests…
I’m featuring a couple of artists who have Sydney shows coming up soon.  Liz Stringer is rumoured to have a swag of new songs that will have an outing at The Vanguard (12 April 2025), and Prince Edward Island band The East Pointers are here. They are up at Blue Mountains Music Festival this weekend, will also be at The Vanguard on Thursday 20 March, and are due to come spend some time with me in 2SER studios.  I’ll snaffle a couple of live tunes from them, and play those very soon.

Are you game to go down to the woods today?
