A flyer for my Edinburgh show - The Umbrella Man and Other Stories: What We Talk About When We Talk About the JFK Assassination. It shows a Saul Bass inspired design of a tumbling man, holding an umbrella.

Ye Vagabonds on Friday night at the Black Box in Galway was an amazing gig. We have two truly outstanding traditional bands in Ireland at the moment, bringing their own style, both are also even better live than recorded. I am so grateful to have Lankum and Ye Vagabonds.
