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
