 A happy old lady is holding a blueberry pastry which has two lit candles stuck into it. The candles are gold, one is in the shape of the number one and the other is in the shape of the number nine - she is celebrating nineteen years sober

19 years sober today!!! 🎉🎈I’ve had so much help and kindness along the way and the great truth of it is the opposite of addiction is connection so please tell someone if you think you might need help, give yourself grace and take it one day at a time, these little days all add up! 💚 #grateful #sober

A very happy Bob Dylan fan in a stripy jumper is sitting on the stairs of a beautiful mid-19th Century Greek Revival house. The stairs are lined with beautiful ironwork, gently glowing lanterns, and elegant foliage, -all leading up to tall intricately patterned double doors which are open, giving a glimpse of the house’s interior which is brightly lit

Dylan fans, I know you know this spot! The fabulous Highway 61 Revisited stairs on Gramercy Park, where I got to plonk my arse down last night courtesy of the wonderful Harper House Music Foundation. Thanks to Laura Cantrell for the invite, and thanks to the extremely tolerant homeowners too!💚

In a lovely tea room bathed in soft golden light, three musicians sit around a low table covered in teacups and plates of cakes and little sandwiches. They are all smiling, properly buzzed on sugar and caffeine 💚

Just a perfect afternoon in Dublin with a couple of legends and a lovely cup of tea! Donal Lunny was and continues to be an immense influence on Irish music, and I loved hearing these two chat about future plans - thank you Steve for a lovely afternoon! 💚

A faded snap of the Pogues rhythm section playing live - they are wearing fancy dress sailors outfits - the Bassplayer is smoking and the drummer is laughing - there may be alcohol involved

Rum, Sodomy, and The Lash was released 40 years ago today! I’m very proud to say it’s one of Tom Waits’ favourite albums 💚 The launch party was on the HMS Belfast, in this pic I’ve no idea how I managed to keep the ash from falling but I hope I won the bet! 🏴‍☠️💚 #music #punk #happybirthday

It was this time this day last year, soundchecking at Carnegie Hall for the immense tribute to Shane and Sinéad. It was such an emotional day and a really beautiful tribute, worthy of those sadly missed Irish legends. Where you there? 💚

This is a must-see! Edna's power and fragility, the nostalgic glimpses of 60s, 70s, 80s Ireland and London, her relationship with her parents and her children, the final interview in her majestic old age - oh wow the whole thing is so compelling - grab a ticket! 💚
