London Treat Day: Lee Miller, Gillian Welch & David Rawlings

I had a little treat of a day in That London, walking around, taking in the Lee Miller exhibition at Tate Britain and having a quick look around some of the other exhibitions where I spent some time with Nina and Gwen.

I ate Thali. I spotted Bathing on the Roof by Tracey Rhys and Significant Wow by Emily Cotterill in Foyle's, both are reviewed in the latest issue of New Welsh Review.

And then I went to see Gillian Welch and David Rawlings at The London Palladium and it was such a special show I'm still dizzy from the magic of it... so here's the set list and a few snaps:

and you can read this review of their Manchester show in The Guardian.

Birthday Treat 2: London for Sierra Ferrell & Nina Hamnett

We had a wonderful trip to London to see the magical unmatchable talent that is Sierra Ferrell in Kentish Town and I also ran off for a sneak peak at Nina Hamnett's wonderful new green room at Tate Britain, getting there early (as the doors opened), I had the room and Nina all to myself. I've long had a fascination with Nina, and my poetry on her has been published in Poetry Wales and been read at events with Celine's Soho Salon at Tenby Museum and Art Gallery. I also featured her in a tour organised with Literature Wales in London many years ago now... and I am currently working on a longer project featuring Nina, her art and her life. The sea, the sea, the sea Is such a salty, magic place If you find yourself goin' under You'll remember the taste The waves, the waves, the waves How they're puttin' out my flame Woah, that's okay, I should be more tame
