I’ll be headlining at Levellers Day at Warwick Hall Garden in Burford this Saturday.
This years theme is jobs – the future of employment.
The speakers include climate jobs expert Barbara Harriss-White, Newsnight’s Economics Editor Paul Mason, and Leader of the communications union (and fellow Scouser) Billy Hayes.
I’ll be on stage at 3.30pm, but there’ll also be music from Trev Williams and from Anne Lister.
It’s a great event and tickets are from £5 either at wegottickets.com or on the door. Under 14s are free.
I’ll be appearing on BBC Radio Merseyside’s flagship folk show Folkscene on Thursday night as the guest of the always charming Geoff Speed.
Okay, I know I said this last week and I got my mucking dates fuddled up but tonight really is the night!!
I’ll be talking about the huge range of stuff going on at the Working Class Life & Music Festival, and Geoff will be spinning some fitting tunes along the way from his mind boggling collection of music.
If that whets your appetite for hearing me on the radio, then check out my appearance last Thursday on the radical radio show Under The Pavement on AllFM in Manchester to hear me chatting all things festival.
Those in the Leicestershire area will be able to listen in to the Breakfast Show on Radio Leicester on Mon (7 March) to hear me chatting about my new song The Dirty Thirty.
I’ll be on at around 8.20am and will be joined by David Bell, the author of the book The Dirty Thirty: Heroes of the Miners Strike, which directly inspired the song.
They’ll be playing some of the song too, as well as finding out how the song came to be.
I’ll be on BBC Radio Merseyside on Friday on the Billy Butler Show, talking about a John Lennon style bed in that I’ll be taking part in at the Bluecoat at the end of the month.
