🎶 Maldon Music & Arts Festival – What a Ride! 🎶 Well, the curtain’s come down on this year’s festival last month, and what a brilliant time we had! Huge thanks to everyone who came, played, danced, listened, and made it unforgettable.
My band captured the magic with a live recording, and we’re thrilled to announce it’ll be released soon as a double album. But while that’s cooking, here’s a little something to whet your appetite—a video of one of the songs from that set.
👉 Have a listen, soak it in, and if it moves you, share it, comment, and help us keep the spirit of the festival alive. Every bit of love helps raise the profile of this incredible community event.
Here’s to the music, the memories, and what’s still to come. 🎤✨
