I need to follow BlueSky more closely! Lovely to see your deep immersion in these records!

Morning Folks! Amazing new stock in the racks! Open till 6pm & don’t forget tomorrow’s Looking For The Magic Sunday Sessions from 4pm till 8pm, pay what you can afford…….Live sets from Sarah Jane Scouten, Jeffrey Dean Foster & Elise LeBlanc & me & Danny spinning tunes inbetween……..gonna be fun 🎶🍺🎸

Look who we bumped into at the Maverick Festival…Yep the brilliant Sarah Jane Scouten, getting ready for her set here & tomorrow at our ‘Sunday Sessions’ at The Sound Lounge! We have an amazing line up of Sarah, Jeffrey Dean Foster and Elise Leblanc…It kicks off from 4pm till 8pm…See ya there! 😎

I wonder if a lack of critique or questioning from his overawed engineering team meant that Dylan felt more need to second-guess himself later.

And as we’ll see next time, adding a full band didn’t exactly bolster his confidence in the New York process.

3/3 You can’t help but feel the buzz the moment you enter…Hannah, Keiron & their team are doing a truly outstanding job. Wake up & smell the roses @suttoncouncil.bsky.social !!

2/3 experience this unique atmosphere. It’s most categorically not just about the great food, live music & other events, which are always brilliant, but the wonderful mix of friendly & welcoming staff, volunteers & audience members.

1/3 This afternoon @soundloungecio.bsky.social was yet another opportunity to experience this very special venue & community resource in all its glory & this observation comes from someone who doesn’t even live within Sutton community, but willingly drives the c90 mile round trip to…

Must be time for another House Gig
