The excellent folk singer-songwriter, Mari Mathias, in Abergavenny, this evening. Caught her at a festival last year and was bowled over so I'm looking forward to a full show.

This one is a real shock.

Of all JM s  catalogue, the 2 albums  with Beverley  are among my favourites.

Record Store  Day saw the release of her long lost solo  debut  LP a few years ago.

Very sad. I saw her once in Canterbury in the early 90s. Wonderful gig. A very talented singer and performer...

Tempted with the Hay-on-Wye gig.

Last time I saw her in concert was back in the Nineties at Nettlebed, in a  trio. It was all a bit too jazz for me that night so I would hope for something a bit folkier this time round.
