February

Hey Hey. Recordings moving a little slower than they should be but I still insist they are on the way. Couple more shows planned for London, so will update as soon as known.

Here's us playing Draconia and First Word at Proud Galleries earlier last month

Hi all

Hate to admit it, but at this time of year time just disappears. Christmas is shoved in your face at every turn, and it's cold, and I've got a cold, and it gets dark really early. Takes some adapting.

Luckily Neo Ferns is carrying on better than ever. Lots of hard work at the moment on the new songs with the band and also at the home recording studio. Had a very good day today and nearly finished a new 2-track E.P entitled 'The Scriptwriters', it should be out next week or the one after.

Got a nice little show coming up on Wednesday (7th Dec) that I'm playing with Theo Jackson on keys. It's at the Strongroom in Shoreditch and live music will start around 8pm. It's totally FREE and you can find out more here

Also, here's a little treat. We recently played at Brick Lane's Cafe 1001, here's a live version of Count To Sleep for those unlucky enough to miss the show.

October

Afternoon all. Quick update.

Working on several different Neo Ferns projects at the moment, 3 to be exact. The first new recordings since Five Weeks are on the way. Recording with members of my old band Sons Of Beca, we're working on songs that should have been documented years ago when the band was still active. It's well underway now, and the project should be finished within the next month or so. The other projects are a bit of a secret at the moment, but are very exciting, will let you know soon as.

New shows will be booked for November time, by which point the full band line-up should be complete and we can start playing more regularly, in and out of London.

Will update more news very soon.

Beirut Brixton Academy After Party


We're excited about this one. We're returning to Brixton's Jamm to play on the bill of Beirut's Official Afterparty after they are sure to amaze a sold out Academy.

Beirut are set to DJ, as well as performances from acts such as Molotov Jukebox.

Tickets are available here:

I also have some tickets to hand as well, so if you want to avoid the service charge just send me a message and I will get one over to you.

It should be a good one, starting proceedings at 9pm and ending sometime in the very early morning.

More information

Laters!

LXV Books Instore Performance

Yes, I'll be doing a solo acoustic set at this small bookshop on Roman Road, close to Bethnal Green Tube Station, and this will happen on the Wednesday 31st August. It's going to be a nice and intimate performance, where I have plans to play several new numbers, as well as dig into my older material. I'll be joined by William George Kettle who will be playing keys and mandolin, and I may have another surprise planned also. Find out further details about the shop and the event here.

Obviously it will be free entry and there will be a bar. You get a free drink for every book you buy over £3, so it's a chance to claim some classics you've been meaning to get into, as well as have a merry time. Two birds!

The occasion will also mark my birthday, so I'm very happy to keep the drinking spirit up as we move onto a nearby drinking establishment.

Also coming up, the full Neo Ferns band will be making another appearance at Jamm to play at Beirut's Brixton Academy afterparty, which should be another smashing event.

You can get tickets here. Or just get in touch as I have to sell to hand also. Hope all is going well in your world, thank you for reading.

Dead Space Sessions


So a couple of weeks ago I made my way over to Whitechapel to record a couple of songs on top of a roof on an afternoon that couldn't decide if it was going to sun, rain or hurricane. The set was part of the Dead Space Sessions, warming up for the festival this weekend just gone. I played Five Weeks, Solar Year and Count To Sleep. I was joined by Dominic Faber who played some great sax improv. Hope you enjoy.

You can see the performance here

About This

This is the music project of James Andrews, and as I've hidden this down here I assume you're mildly interested so I hope you maintain that curiosity and enjoy this blogging page.
