Staggering isn’t it? That’s just July’s artists who received funding from Creative Scotland Open Fund. Every month from today, this won’t happen. A cultural wipeout. A cultural disaster. Cultural Armageddon. #NoArtWithoutArtists

Catching the Bowls final before going in for the Hamilton Caledonian Bowling Club Male Voice Choir AGM. Can’t wait to get started on our 24/25 Season.

Getting into the swing of things with Bridge of Weir Choral. Great to be singing the Maxwell Geddes. His grandson sings in our choir. What a stunning piece it is.

Looking forward to getting back to working with the guys again. Cannot wait to join South Lanarkshire Council Provost choral extravaganza event in October too!

Ive purposely made this part of my The General Teaching Council for Scotland update. Inspired by my time working at Glasgow Life and the work we undertook around Anti Racism in the arts. A great article below, and well worth a read.

Great concert tonight with the Hamilton Caledonian Bowling Club Male Voice Choir. Big thanks to Michelle McManus for the introduction, and thanks to South Lanarkshire Council for inviting us to take part.

A great concert tonight with the Hamilton Caley Male Voice Choir. Now jumping on the sleeper and heading to Association of British Choral Directors conference. Can’t wait.

An inspirational day at Association of British Choral Directors conference. Great to hear about the fabulous research going on with Universal Voices @ University of Reading and NYCOS. Huge thank you to @neilcpferris for taking time to work with me on my technique. Ended the day with the Amazing Cabaret.
