A duo with Jenn Bostic
In December 2013 I toured the UK supporting the vivacious and massive voice that is Jenn Bostic. I had had my doubts about this jaunt - short sets, long drives, an audience more au fait with the country twang of Jenn's Nashville sound, or the pop happiness of other support Emma Stevens. Thankfully, the audience were far more forgiving towards my melancholia than I had expected - particular thanks to the evening's opening sets by Jack Omer - music far more akin to my style. Jack became a bit of a tour buddy as we shared lifts and miserable music from Glasgow to Cornwall.
Half way through the tour, Jenn took me aside in the sweetest way and asked if we could do something musically together. I had been blown away by her polished performance style and titanic voice and despite the vast genre gap I knew this would work. So here is the finished product.
