Tayfest Saturday 23rd May — Acoustic Stage
This was my first solo gig at Tayfest, and driving up to the venue, I could feel the buzz in the air.
I loved playing on the Acoustic Stage as I was near the audience and could catch sight of their feet tapping along to my songs. I kept my set pretty upbeat, and that seemed to go down well, judging by the response I had from members of the audience.
One of the highlights for me was seeing my pal Stan Urban putting his voice and piano through their paces with some classic rock ’n’ roll. The audience loved it, as did I.
Another treat for me was meeting Alan Wilson, one of the festival organisers. Alan is also the Chairman of Dundee's WestFest, and I’m looking forward to hearing his band, Boogalusa, at Dundee Westfest.
My sponsor, Mick McCluskey from intro2music and I spent the rest of the day chatting with other performers, catching up with friends, and sharing selfies with fans.
All in all, it was a wonderful day to be playing outdoors at a summer festival.
Thrilled to be out performing and singing my songs with Dave Wilkinson at three major festivals – Tayfest, Haddstock, and Dundee Westfest. Playing live at these local events always reminds me how music can bring people together for a fantastic day out.
