I'm looking forward to playing at The Hug and Pint in Glasgow as part of West Fest on 21st June, with Chiara Berardelli and spoken word artist Biff Smith.
I'll be performing a one off set of songs from Greetings From Gartnavel, accompanied by Chiara on piano and vocals. I will also be joining Chiara onstage with my double bass, in what looks set to be a fun evening of songs and spoken word.

Biff Smith is a poet and singer-songwriter from Glasgow. He began writing and performing poetry as he was attracted by the idea of not having to carry a guitar. In 2025 he won both Scottish and World Poetry Slam Championships.
His specialist subjects include failure, depression, alcoholism and existential dread. He enjoys fine wines and likes a good belly laugh.
Chiara Berardelli left her job as a doctor to follow her passion and self-released her first album at the tender age of 42. Her songs are an evocative collision of her piano-led love of harmony and fiercely honest lyrics.
Her latest album, Archaeology, has been a new writing collaboration with Biff Smith of Glasgow band A New International.
