B-Sydes

This year I went for the classic approach of not applying to any festivals & then still feeling an incredible sadness when I see the line-ups. Like a fool.
Massive thank you to James Willcocks for reaching out to me to play! What a hero!

Can’t wait for Here For The Music Festival/OTR this June!

It’s probably going to be one of the very few places you’ll catch me playing this June/ festival season, so it would be amazing to see you!

The Biggest Little Festival is June 12th-14th at The Palladium Club in Bideford!

*SOUND THE CEREMONIAL “NEW SHOW” AIR HORNS!*

I’m delighted to be part of VicFest Day 3 at The Victoria in Swindon!

I’m supporting my boy Gaz Brookfield! Alongside JB and the Mojo Makers & M3G!

What. A. Line-Up!

I think I slightly underestimated how much it costs to put together, record & release an album! Especially given that my life has totally changed since the last album and the three of us are now a wonderful little family! Release an album? In this economy?

So thank you! We shall get there together!

Massive thank you to everyone who picked up one of the deals I put out on Bandcamp Friday!

It’s very much appreciated!

Another Show?!

Your eyes do not deceive you!

On Match 7th I’ll heading to play my first show at The Barn And Ell’s Bar! And I’m bringing Mexican Dave along for the ride too!

I’ve heard many great things about the barn and I can’t wait to play!

I've been a little bit quiet...

Well I'm back! (In a bit!)

I've got January & February off this year to work on the NEW ALBUM (*GASP!*), more about that later!

Very pleased to let you know my first show of 2026 will be supporting my old pal Nick Parker at The Hop Inn in Swindon on Fri 6th March!

YouTube video by Cellar 92 Sessions #147 Cellar 92 Sessions: B-Sydes - The Beast Of Bedlam

Here’s my 2nd video from my Cellar NinetyTwo session!

“Beast Of Bedlam” from my upcoming album!

Some of you know the story behind this song, some might not. I’ll likely elaborate when the album comes out this year!

But for now, I hope you enjoy this live solo version!

Recommendations!

Has anyone got any guitar luthier recommendations for Wiltshire and surrounding areas?

In need of a set up for my guitar!

First one to say Lex Luthier loses…

Not against it. Sounds like Airplane.

Keep an eye out for my first Cellar 92 video, which drops today!

100%. This please

Someone should be employed by GWR to smack people over the head with a rolled up newspaper if they talk in the quiet carriage.

Merry Christmas friends!

Have yourselves a spectacular day!

Much festive love,

Biggest of thank you to Gaz Brookfield and The Company Of Thieves, (who were on fire that night), for having me! Always a great privilege & very much appreciated. Big love.

Now I’ll be disappearing from playing live for a bit to finish album 3! But then you never know what might crop up…
