In the last year Jon Bickley has worked with The Cowper and Newton Museum to mark the 250th anniversary of the writing of Amazing Grace, commissioning the performance of new songs by Angeline Morrison and Cohen Braithwaite-Kilcoyne and has written and performed the songs for a new play, St. Kilda.
New albums will be released in Winter and in Spring. You can hear songs from both projects at Watford Folk Club. Musicians will include Milo Downs, Bill Nimmo, Phil Beavis and Diana Stone.
