This is the interview I did on BBC Radio Wiltshire in January - before I had to cancel the Roy Harper gig due to illness! So, I kind of saw that coming... I actually said "plenty of time for things to go wrong!
Still, the re-scheduled gig is coming up on May the 7th - fingers crossed for this one!
My Roy Harper tribute gig has been re-scheduled for Sunday, May 7th - 2pm - 4pm.
Thanks to everybody at the Komedia for this - the show will be even better with extra time to prepare!
If you like Led Zep or Pink Floyd, chances are you will love the songs of Roy Harper. If you are already a fan, come on over and we'll have a great afternoon celebrating the genius songs of the great man.

An interview with Jonathan Fido on BBC Radio Wiltshire talking about COP26, climate change and my song "High Clouds"

This song was written in the early days of the Ukraine war and uses the image of the Tower tarot card. The Tower stands for two separate things, the stability of the status quo, but also the constraints of conformity. The chaos is all around us, will we fall – or fly?
The lead guitar is inspired by Jimmy Page's work with Roy Harper.
