well it's taken a couple of days for it to really sink in, but i'm really happy to be able to say that a selection of songs from my album won both the birmingham conservatoire and (jointly with the marvellous alex ho) the philip bates prizes for songwriting this tuesday.
team sleep rehearsing on the day
it was great fun taking part in the competition, and it was a fantastic concert, with such a varied programme. congratulations also to dan cippico who won the audience prize for his piece the people's music of palabeyo.
finally, a big thank you to the band for learning all those time changes.
this concert was something of a proof of concept that this music can be done live (with a little bit of elbow grease), so expect to see more dates in the future!
