Devils and Dust and Long Walk Home

For reasons which I hope to blog about soon I was reminded of the following two tracks which serve as a reminder of Springsteen's songwriting genius (in my opinion of course):

So for no particular reason other than sadly still very relevant:

CMA Songwriters Series

The Country Music Association's critically acclaimed CMA Songwriters Series will return to C2C on 7 March 2019, at indigo at The O2.
Hosted by Cam and featuring Jimmie Allen and Ross Copperman, it will also introduce Travis Denning and Laura Veltz to U.K. audiences for the first time. The performance follows October's successful second annual CMA Songwriters Series tours in Europe and the U.K., while also marking the sixth London appearance for CMA Songwriters Series during C2C.

CMA Songwriters Series introduces new artists and songwriters through its intimate storytelling format. Audiences get to know the performers, their journey and the stories behind their songs throughout the two-hour seated show, as artists take turns performing their songs acoustically.

Each CMA Songwriters Series is unique - the one-off performances are unrehearsed, uplifting and heartwarming, leaving audiences feeling closer to the artists and the music.

Well that's the official blurb, I am not a Cam fan so hope hosting means just hosting. The others I know little about but sure to be a great night.

Shortest Tour Rumour Ever!

I for one didn't think so to be honest.

A crushing blow, but lets face it he has never rushed into anything so from Broadway to new album and tour was never going to happen.

Snow Patrol

Excellent new track from Snow Patrol, really looking forward to seeing them in Glasgow on 31 January.

The album has been out for a while I think.

Here is a classic
