This isn’t a solo album, it was made by everybody who was involved. Thanks loads to all of you for helping it happen the way I hoped it would. Extra special thanks also to everyone who funded it, allowing it happen in the first place – in particular Mum & Dad, Tor & Vic, Lin & Phil and especially Mike Gillibrand, Chi Hung Liu and Graham Woof (and Jon B and Phil E) for staggering faith and generosity.

Thanks also to: Luke Walker for moral support at gigs beyond the call of duty; Mike Reinstein for crucial encouragement; my fellow members of the Bandana Collective (Lawrie Stevens, Robb Johnson, Claire Rowland, and Bethan and Arv); Loraine Perrin for her time and kindness; Stephen Ringwood, James Hamilton and Mike Anderson; the staff of the Keep (www.thekeep.info); Railway Roots (formerly Hove Folk Club); Mark and Barry at Big Untidy; Moykal O’Bui at TOTHAS; Chuck Sj Hay and Lewis McKale at Hush Hush; all at the Greys; Grant Sharkey; Zoe West; John Forrester and Linze Maesterosa; Stephen Bad-Mother-Folker; Ben Fardon at StrungOut; Donald Shier at InBrighton Live; Alexander Voodoo at Artista; anyone else who’s put me on, who I’ve played with, or who said they liked my songs – thanks for the implication that this is a good idea!

And to Ruth, Bevan and Aela for all my life. XXX
