LOUISE JORDAN
This
summer is set to be very busy indeed so I am looking forward to taking a
break in May for the Dartmouth Festival, definitely a personal
highlight of my festival season this year. I really enjoy visiting the
South West coast - the last time I was in town was to rest and recuperate
after my winter tour last December 2011 so it’s just about time I paid
Dartmouth another visit.
My unofficial roadie, a military historian, tells me that Bayards Cove (where one of my performances takes place) has a number of well angled embrasures with a good
field of fire. He also informs me that Browns Hotel, where I will also be
playing, stocks locally sourced fish
and meat. I have heard Dartmouth Castle is also really rather splendid.
So I’ll be advertising for a new roadie for the weekend I suppose, as
mine will no doubt be AWOL.
The
job description requires the ability to know what I am thinking at any
given time (no-one has managed it yet), organisational skills second to
none and a total disinterest in drinking beer at a folk festival. An
inbuilt compass would also be an advantage (I taught my fair share of
subjects during my short-lived career as a teacher, although geography
was not one). Anyone?!
It
would be good to see you at one of my performances during the festival.
With so many fantastic acts to see you will surely have some difficult
choices to make. If you are able to come along to either of my festival
performances, please do come and say hello and have a chat.
See you on the 12th May.
Louise
