Tamworth 07

Hello all!!!
I hope this finds everybody well…
I know I said I would get back to you right after Tamworth, but better late than never right??
I had a great week during the Tamworth festival.. We saw some great shows and had a great time playing..
This year we played as a 3 piece, Mik McCartin on drums, Joel Oakhill on bass and I played electric.. Having never played electric live especially as a 3 piece, it was a little scary… But the boys were unbelievable having such a solid rhythm section it made my job a lot easier…
The response to the Album was better than I could have wished for, we sold heaps during the festival and I have had great feedback since!!! This being my first album I couldn’t be happier with the response…
I also played the writers in the round on the Tuesday morning with two of my favourite songwriting boys Karl Broadie (www.karlbroadie.com) and Michael Bryers (www.michaelbryers.com).. I had a ball, definetly one of the highlights of my festival.. I thought I could talk but sitting in between these two boys I just sat back and listened to the entertainment.. It was a great show..
My boys the Bluezone (www.enterthebluezone.com) played some great shows… They were rockin out!!!! There last show was a screamer.. All the best guitarists in town turned up.. And it was an almighty jam to end all jams.. It was cool.. The boys got me up to kick of the Jam.. And I can tell you now, I have never had more fun playing in my life.. Being a new comer to the electric guitar scene I hope it only gets better.. I am defintely now hooked..Thanks for letting me be a part of it boys..
We saw some great shows.. We definetly didn’t miss a boogy with the Flood boys (www.theflood.com.au), it was rockin.. After running most of the way to West Leagues (We thought it would be quicker than catching a cab) we then boogied some more to The Fargone Beauties.. It was great.. My legs were sore in the morning.. I have now started the Gym incase we decide to repeat this journey next year..
Anyway that was my festival full of fun as always…
At this stage I still haven’t got the album in stores.. So if you are interested in purchasing it.. Please contact me through the website and we can get something sorted..
I am organising album launches in Sydney, Newcastle and Towwomba.. If you are near those areas stay tuned for the info, I would LOVE to see you there..
Well I feel like I have almost written a novel.. So will leave it there for now..
Stay safe!!! And be happy!!!
Cheers
Kim

Hey Guys,
I thought it was about time I updated you all on what I’ve been up to..
I hope that everyone had a great Easter!! I spent mine in beautiful, sunny Byron Bay for the East coast blues and roots festival.. And I had the time off my life..
Even the rain and a completely flooded campsite (See Pics in Gallery) couldn’t dampen our spirits.. Though it was nice to have accommodation with a water view!!! We saw some amazing players and artists!!! Some of my favourites were the Blind Boys of Alabama, it was the first time I had seen these guys and I was just blown away.. I also really enjoyed Mia Dyson.. Now that’s one chick that can rock!!! I couldn’t begin to name everyone I liked, I would be here all day..
Overall it was a great festival!! Great music, Great friends, great food,(And Drinks), GOOD TIMES!!!
Also so for another bit of news…It’s looking good for the album at the moment.. Though it’s a long time coming we are heading back to the studio real soon to finish it off… I can’t wait!!!!
Until Next Time.. Have Fun..
Cheers
Kim
