Saw two awesome folk singer-songwriters last night. Alasdair Roberts (who I think I’ve raved about on Twitter before) supported by Rick Redbeard (who I hadn’t heard of, but his songwriting and voice are super melancholy and beautiful).
I don’t think there’s anything more inspiring for a musician than watching someone who’s really, really good at an instrument you’re kind of good with and want to get better at. Tim made us sit in the front row which meant I could watch their fingers on the strings, which was a treat. Always gonna do that for acoustic guitarists from now on if I can.
