This will be my first time playing at the 12 Bar Club! I saw this little review of the club and thought you might like to check it out. (I stole the picture from the article, too. Hope that’s ok.) It’s right in the heart of Central London near Tottenham Court Road, Charing Cross and Oxford Street. So if you can’t get out to the beautiful gig in Chesham on the 15th, or if you have and want to see me in the heart of the city, this will be the gig! Can’t wait for this week in back in England!
