With the competition getting seriously HOT, is Lauren Steadman’s Tofu Laksa enough to impress the judges?🧐

A little glimpse from a gorgeous summer fair in Lower Sunbury ☀️🎶 A big thank you to everyone who listened, sang along, danced and smiled.

Huge thanks to my beautiful girl Amy @onefarsun whose incredible vocals and encouragement are the reason I was there in the first place. It was such a joy to share the day with such talented musicians.

A special mention to Jules, whose Tennessee-twang vocals are just glorious. I had the pleasure of singing backing vocals for some of her set, including her stunning original song Sleep Tight – such a gorgeous piece of music.

And of course, @robertjamesaitken on lead guitar, with his effortlessly awesome playing. (Next year ... Shania Twain encore???)

Days like these are a super cool reminder of being lucky to make music with and for wonderful people. ❤️

On Thursday I had the honour of playing for the memorial of producer Andy Williams aka @yamwho or mr @midnightriotrecords at the @fillybrook
It’s at moments like these that I fully understand how much impact one person can have on the fate and career trajectories of so many individual people. There were many stories of life changing meetings or encounters that I can’t recount fully here, though for those who knew him, they will understand his influence.
I was introduced to him by @hamish_balfour and after a few sporadic sessions, he asked me to join a project with Steve from @odysseynyc re-recording some of their classics with a twist. (See the last slide for a video from the live studio recording) Being included in this project amongst many later sessions, help me develop as a player and musician, and I am forever grateful to him for the opportunity and for trusting me with the bass chair in that project.
RIP Andy, and thank you for all you gave to those around you🙏

Thanks @gavinmillsphotography for the pictures.

Wow what can I say...Traxsource Artist of the Year 2024. Thank you 🙏🏻

2024 was the year I was on a mission to produce more original music.

I've always produced, but I had a dream to release an Album and I took the first two months of the year off from DJing, only doing one gig in this period to focus on it.

It was then back to the busy schedule, Monday to Friday in the studio, weekends at Gigs....it's not the party lifestyle people think it is 🤣.

Seeing the reaction to my new tracks and getting the recognition makes it all worthwhile.

It's therefore amazing to see the Traxsource "Top Tracks for 2024" and be featured as follows:-
- 3 in the Top 10 Tracks for 2024
- No. 5 Album for 2024
- No. 1 & 2 Singles for 2024
- No. 2, 3 & 4 Tracks for 2024 in the Soul Funk Disco Category

I'm starting writing for the next Album in January.

I also have lots of remixes produced and ready for release in 2025, a new single dropping in January and many gigs stacking up already which I can't wait to share with you.

Thank you as ever for your support 🙏🏻
