#14 New & Improved

Hello, it's been a while. For those of you that have been reading all of my ramblings, then you'll know that my life is split into "musician" and "earning enough money to carry on being a musician" periods. The last couple of months have largely been the latter. Not that it's all been hard graft. There's been some cool gigs and nice little developments in that time. I supported Ben Ottewell of Gomez which was ace as it was a sold out gig and the room was full from start to finish. Supporting isn't always the awesome gig you hope for or imagine it to be as most people are there to see the main act and often don't bother watching the support. Not in this case and I was very grateful to have such a friendly attentive crowd. I was lucky enough to play for the Dot 2 Dot festival last month which was also pretty cool. Other bits of good news are that we've confirmed that the trio shall be playing at Harbourside festival in Bristol next month and i've been playing a bit of guitar for my friend (that was on the telly box) Christina Marie. We did a little session for BBC Bristol which you can see below.

Harbourside Festival is always quite an important one to me as it marks the anniversary of me moving to Bristol and sorting my life out. Also it was my first experience of Bristol as a city and it's music scene which, for the record, is great!

The biggest news of late (apart from one other that i'm coming to) is that WE'RE PLAYING GLASTONBURY! The trio shall be playing on the Small World stage in the Green fields on Sunday at 8:15pm. Fingers crossed we can blag a few other slots too, but very chuffed to be playing on an "official" stage, not that playing backstage last year wasn't awesome. This is just a different kind of awesome! :-)

Official Glastonbury app. Wahoo! :-)

So the final and most recent bit of news is that thanks to Ian from Faultless Design I have a shiny new website! You can check it out at www.AaronDouglasMusic.co.uk so have a look and let us know what you think! Ian has been a total legend with regards to the imagery of all my latest work (he did the artwork for the Shipwrecks single) and is basically a dude so keep an eye out for his new creative venture (King of Pixels) coming soon. :-)

That's it for now, Glastonbury next week and then back to the studio! Hope you're all getting to enjoy the sunshine!
