Kindly sponsored by Presto Music this is an exhibition of some of my favourite images from my years of gig photography consisting of 40 prints and 40 digital images and includes over 25 unpublished shots.

There will be short sets by two of my all time favourite performers and good friends Steve Walwyn and Kristy Gallacher during the evening and I have put together a playlist of some of my favourite numbers by artists portrayed in the exhibition.
Every penny raised on the night will be split between my 2 chosen charities.
ZOE'S PLACE - A baby hospice based in Coventry providing palliative, respite and end of life care to babies and infants aged from birth to five years.
&
THE CINNAMON TRUST -The National Charity for the elderly, the terminally ill and their pets.
There are several ways you can help donate on the night by contributing to the charities collection boxes (would be a nice thank you to my guest musicians giving their time and skills for free), the purchase of raffle tickets at £2 a strip and if you take a shine to one of the prints (A3 photo mounted) they will be for sale on a first come first reserved (paid for) basis and available to take away after 10pm or to collect later in the week for a special price of £20 each.
