Tomorrow night! My last stupid harmonised plug of the year for my last set of originals of the year. @thebarnmeanwood w/@hevelwood and @lilian_folk to celebrate Hevelwood's new album. Come on down, we'd love to see you
Now then, if you were planning on coming to the launch next week, we've had a venue switch - we're now going to be hitting up @thebarnmeanwood down at Leeds institution @MeanwoodFarm. Really looking forward to sets from @hgsorme and @lilian_folk.
Right then, we're having a launch. It's going to be great, we've got personal faves @hgsorme and @lilian_folk on the bill. If you're Leeds or thereabouts, come on down!
In the summer madness, I somehow missed this lovely new record from @JESUNDEMUSIC - we should all be so lucky to someday make an album with an opener this strong

Some absolute legend working at a library in Spain has put together a playlist of all the music mentioned by @tedgioia in his History of Jazz book:

@jllfontanella@tedgioia Josep, that's so cool! Thanks a lot for letting us know - I've just done some googling to try and find Joan's email to tell them thank you, but I couldn't find anything. If you happen to know anyone who knows how to get in touch with them let me know!
I'm about 100 tunes in, at the back end of a batch of early Louis Armstrong recordings. I know it's not exactly a hot take to say that Louis Armstrong was one of the greatest, but man, the sheer joy of his trumpet playing on this, the freedom of it, the playfulness of it
