Long time no blog....
Well I've just been looking over the website to see what needs updating and realised it's been ages since I've written anything here... So today's the day!
There's so much to try and catch up on, but I think maybe I'll skip to the now and the up and coming while it's fresh in the ole mind!
Julz and I are gearing up for another road trip... this time around Australia! We've been given an awesome camper van for almost 8 weeks to tour around the country, play gigs and write some of our interesting travel stories on the sponsors web site (http://www.worldnomads.com/) and we couldn't be happier with the situation. We'll be World Nomad Ambassadors (the very official title that comes with the van) from Feb 13 til we eventually drop the van off in Darwin on April 4. And we're going to be working it hard... so far our itinerary goes something like this:
Sydney - Adelaide - Perth - Broome - Darwin, with a lot of towns and gigs in between.
We're back in Broome for a couple of weeks worth of shows in March and this time we're armed with transport and camping facilities so we'll see how much fun we can have. We'll have the fabulous Trace on Bass with us for that stint as well... oooooooooohhhh the fun times ahead!
We're dedicating the tour to the launch of the Hussy Hicks first album... providing of course that we get it all finished in time! I have faith...
On top of all that we're making some pretty serious plans for our o/s trips, we've been invited to perform at the Beijing Midi Festival in China as well as the Sarzarna International Acoustic Guitar Meeting in Italy which will both be highlights and we're throwing together a string of shows throughout China and Europe to go along with those dates. We're also planning to head back to Dubai to play some shows and visit my big sister who is still living there. and of course no Hussy trip would be complete without a stint in the US of A. To all our friends over there - look out coz we're on our way!
So all this means a lot of excitement, a lot of driving, a lot of playing music, a whole bunch of new places to discover, and probably a lot of being broke after paying for our musical gypsy lifestyle. And it's right up my alley! Woo Hoo!!!!!
