Really excited to see this online. It was a real pleasure to interview Tomos about his jazz/folk project Cwmwl Tystion for @theQuietus, on tour now. Big thanks to @PaddyClarke for the editing!
Pleasure to write about the incredible Sun-Mi Hong Quintet for @Jazzwise, their first gig at the Vortex but hopefully not their last...

We’re 80% towards achieving our goal, but we still need to raise more to cover start-up costs. This is an All or Nothing Crowdfunder, so IKLECTIK will only survive if we hit this target by 1st March.
Please support us to move into our next chapter https://t.co/OUINUDo1j0
Next week in Parliament, I will be voting for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. I urge fellow MPs to wake up, think about what is happening in Gaza, and do the same.
Good that the Bowie archive ad is drawing attention to appalling sector pay. But of course people live on £27k (and much less) in London, 'dream job' or not -- suggesting otherwise seems counterproductive in ignoring swathes of the workforce 1/2
This is 7 year old Sidra, the cousin of my wife. The impact of the Israeli missile was so powerful it flung her out, leaving her mutilated body dangling from the ruins of the destroyed building in Rafah 48 hours ago. My wife’s aunt Suzan, her husband Fouzy Hassouna, two of their sons, Muhammad and Karam, Karam's wife Amouna and her three children (7-year-old twins Sidra and Suzan, and 15-month-old Malik) were all killed. The family had been displaced from the north of Gaza and took shelter in Rafah. We will be relentless until those responsible brought to justice.
