Look what came through the letterbox this morning! Page 31 of BASCA magazine 'The Word'! Thanks BASCA and Music Gateway! 

Tonight I'm playing as part of a special show at Roadtrip and The Workshop on Old Street in London, supporting Australian Country Artist Aleyce Simmonds. Also on the bill are up and coming singer songwriter Fable (who Russ and Paul are working with) and Tom Bem. Entrance is free (a rarity for London)  so come along for a great night of free entertainment and talent! 

A slightly manic weekend (and week)! Kick started yesterday with a gig at wonderful Sound Lounge at Merton Abbey Mills for their 'Music and Marshmallows' night. A fab night as always guys, thank you!

Today I'm playing at the Woking Food Festival at 1.30pm in Gloucester Square and 2pm at Commercial Way. It's always a busy event full of amazing food and free demonstrations by top chefs (which as someone who would quality for 'diasterchef' I'm not sure means that much to me but hubby enjoys it!). The Phoenix Culture Centre are staging the music events again this year so a huge thank you to Eliane and co!

This evening I'll be playing at the launch of Graham Steels music company at the South Hill Park Arts Centre in the Atrium at 7pm. Phew! And it's not over yet! Big show on Wednesday in London which I'll save for tomorrow's post.....

Hi all,

I'm so, so pleased to announce that I'm going to be featured as a full page advertorial in the BASCA magazine in two weeks time! This is all thanks to an opportunity that I applied for through the musical networking site 'Music Gateway' and I'm stoked! If you're a member of BASCA keep your eyes out for it. Hopefully it'll direct more people to 'River Man' and all the hard work that my 'team' of fabulous musicians, photographer John, producer Jez and I have put in. Made my week!

I'm very pleased to announce that tonight I'll be guesting with the very wonderful Ukejam at The Boileroom for the launch party of the Guildford Fringe Festival! And if that wasn't enough we'll be raising money for Phil Mitchell who's about to embark on a trip for Mission Rabies. It's free so come on down for one of the biggest parties of the year!

A huge thank you to everyone who took part and came to the show at The International bar for You Bloom 2014. It was a cracking night with some brilliant live music (not to mention the atmosphere!). Here's a little photo of me on stage at The International! #youbloom #livemusic #Dublin

I've had word that some of you are having trouble with the free You Bloom download on Bandcamp (In that Bandcamp are not issuing the code on the download - tech eh?). So here's a bunch of them!

Enjoy!

Tomorrow I'll be heading off to play at the wonderful You Bloom music festival and conference in Dublin! This year it's even better as the gigs are free! So if you're in Dublin, come down to The International on Wicklow Street (Sat 14th June), I'll be on at 8.55pm, I can't wait! To celebrate I'm giving away 200 free downloads of my new single 'Who Could Say' here: http://annaneale.bandcamp.com/yum Better get in quick! Anna X

Hi all,

I've got two very special gigs next weekend which see me performing in London for the first time in a long while (very decadent of me these days!).

THE COVER UP presents Paul Simon's Graceland

The first of these is a special night devoted to Paul Simon's 'Graceland's' album, where 10 other bands/musicians and myself will be re-interpreting the songs at The Good Ship in Kilburn. I've never done one of these before but I've heard wonderful things about it and can't wait to perform one of the many songs I've loved since I was a child. Tickets are available now at a bargain £4. Please do come along and help us bring one of the best albums of all time back to life!

The Sound Lounge Festival

 I'm also really pleased to announce that I'll performing at the wonderful Sound Lounge Festival near Wimbledon on 4th May at 2pm. The Sound Lounge are a shining light in promoting talent in and around London and I can't wait to play. The event is free and runs all day.
