There are so many pages now to update that it is getting to be too much! You can find me on twitter as (expired link) and the facebook page (expired link) still exists. Also you can find videos of latest songs recorded on the piano at home on my instagram page (expired link)
I am busy completing my debut album and look forward to sharing it with you soon!
Since I last updated here, I have been hosting house concerts for local artists, facilitating Sunny Corner Sessions here at home for local songwriters on occasional Sunday afternoons and recording. With the corona virus still wreaking havoc with our social lives, there have been no open mics for a while. I love doing these, if not to see what other musical talent exists in the city, and I miss them a great deal. In my other life I am still nursing and working in remedial massage as well as trying to garden biodynamically! Big love x

The lurgy finally caught up with me last week and floored me for a couple days. I have about as much energy in my legs as a jellyfish but am trying hard to soak up the spring sunshine which is warm and reminding us all that better days are on the way. Basically it brings out the hippy in me and I can be excited about the bursts of colour appearing in the garden! In fact, last night, for an unadulterated hour, I was my old bohemian self and I played piano with nothing but candles for light as it was World Earth Hour... Musically though, as a result, I haven't been up to much. The last open mic was at The Glad Cafe at the beginning of the month with Alex on drums. The weekly radio show is ongoing. My last guest was the very talented David Duffy, a singer-songwriter from Glasgow set for greater things. Have a listen to the show- it's up on my mixcloud page. His band is called The Makeshifts. I have some great guests heading my way- Marco Rea of Wellgreen, Miss Irenie Rose, Harry and the Hendersons, Bella and the Bear, Old Bohemia and Duglas T Stewart of BMX Bandits. They will be coming on to the Night Nurse radio show, which runs every Wednesday from 10pm til midnight on Pulse 98.4fm. Best reception though is via the internet (expired link). I love to offer local talent a platform to share their work and what it means to them. Recording my own music has taken a back seat, again. I really rely on the kindness of good friends to get the one or the other track up there but really there's a couple albums waiting in the wings...I continue to play at open mics around the city. I like the anonymity of them and the fact they are mostly, small, intimate venues where people are supportive and genuine. I also get to scout for acts to come on my radio show. So a win-win. If you see me when I'm out playing, feel free to come and say hello. Always good to put a face to a name. If you tweet, you'll find me as @lulladi. Enjoy the Spring!
