Downpour

The heat wave has given way to overcast skies and the atmosphere is a bit heavy...hoping for a cleansing downpour. Some music to match. The gorgeous Chris Wood champions traditional new English and 'world' folk - please try to see him live if you can and pick up Albion. He is wonderful. Also the Smoke Fairies are doing the festival circuit in a big way this year so do try to catch them. Ah. Here comes the rain. 1.
