SMELL THE ROSES

It’s a mad wind that fills our sails of late

Warm and heavy like the thunderstorms above us

It has been, by far, the busiest two weeks of touring we have ever had in the UK and we still have so many shows to look forward to

Flashes of the country go by in the blink of an eye as we travel up and down the length of Old Blighty, Scotland and Wales

The sound of the van wheels rolling beneath us, harmonising with our whirring minds and our thumping hearts

Astounded by the beauty and diversity of the landscape

Ever touched by the sincerity, generosity and honesty of the people who listen, dance and connect with our music

Impressed by the hospitality of those who welcome us into their homes

Looking over our shoulders at the world’s news as it bites at our heels

Trying not to let it weigh too heavy

Asking, as ever, what can we do to evoke positive change

For now we write this from a sanctuary in Oswestry, working up new songs in an old chapel

A quiet place to soothe our aches and recharge

tired

yet so grateful to be here

still here 

living our passion

and finding time to stop and smell the roses

...or taste the raspberries

or swim wild

if you’re reading this, then we miss you

and we look forward to seeing you

and remember,

we always have a spare seat in our van

Your fan,

ADT
