This time six years ago, this was our view - from our hotel room at @folk_alliance in #KansasCity

Tonight, we’re heading back to #FolkAlliance - the world’s largest folk conference - this year having it’s first virtual outing. Our showcase is at 2am GMT / 6PM CST. Usually the conference is just for industry delegates, but this year they have opened it up to you!

#FolkUnlocked is bringing the international folk community together for a week of performances, panels, workshops and connection. Check it out at folk.org/unlocked/ 🎻🎶🎻🎶

Thanks everyone who joined me for today’s workshop! Thoroughly enjoyed talking to you all.

I could’ve gone on for days, so I’m considering doing a longer series of songwriting workshops in the future, to give a bit more space to each area. Let me know if that’s something you’d be interested in, or if there’s a certain area you’d like covered.

I’m just sorting out the recording, I’ll be sending that and the notes / playlist out to you asap xx

After soooooo long apart, it was very special to see my sister @harrietemma93 and Sam ❤️Look at the happiness in those ears! Despite only being able to walk round in the rain for an hour!

Looking forward to seeing lots of you at my final songwriting workshop tomorrow. Links have been emailed out, or for subscribers, it’s on the forum. Or you can still join us! https://philliphenryhannahmartin.bandcamp.com/merch/songwriting-workshop-2

It was such a pleasure to run my first songwriting workshop last Wednesday. I’m doing another this Wednesday so maybe see you there?

This will be a more practical session, with some exercises to get us writing. It doesn’t matter if you came last week or not. I think the methods work, as I ended up writing a song halfway through writing the workshop… 😂

Free for subscribers, or tickets from

There might not be any gigs, or special occasions. But it was still a restringing kind of day. It’s made my violin so much happier! And aren’t @larsenstrings wax seals just ❤️🎶🎻

Hard working guitar today, Phil’s been busy teaching. Which is perfect because apparently it’s national #pickupyourguitarday 😁🎶🎸

We’re getting there everyone, hang in there ❤️

(And yes, I know the rest of you are snowed in, but here in Costa del Exmouth we had but a few feeble flakes, so I’m enjoying the spring bulbs instead!)

(Oh and I’ve just emailed out access links to subscribers and ticket holders for tomorrow’s workshop, really looking forward to seeing you all!)

It’s a little small for Phil…

Feel very lucky to have a super-knitter grandma-in-waiting sending us goodies - though we can’t wait until she can deliver in person 🤗❤️

On another note - for those who wish to come to my workshops but are juggling other commitments - all ticket holders will also be sent a link to a recording of the sessions, to accommodate all timings and schedules.

Really looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday!

Hope you are all having a lovely Sunday ☀️ I’ve had a few requests for these over the years, so I’m holding two songwriting workshops over the next couple of Wednesdays.

The first (next Wed 10th) will be about my approach to songwriting, and will be suitable for all, whether you write, have another creative practice, or are simply curious.

The second session will be the week after (wed 17th) and will be a more practical session tailored to those who write songs themselves, or wish to.

For those who can’t make the time, the sessions will be recorded, so just let me know if you’d like to be sent the recording when you get your ticket.

The sessions are both free for our subscribers, or tickets are available from our @bandcamp site 😊🎶🎙️

Lockdown project #2,679,567…

Paint a mural for your rather blank looking nursery. I got a bit carried away. Please note, B is for Banjo, D is for Dobro, babies should learn these things early 😂🥰

Thanks all who’ve been grabbing tickets for our gig THIS FRIDAY - it will be our last for a while so it would be very lovely to see you! Link in biog.

Well that’s made my month 🥰🎶🎸🎻

The simple joys of a bottling day.
This one’s a strong dark Belgian style called Headwetter, to celebrate our new arrival. It’s for long term storage (because I want to be able to have some!!) but I’m sure Phil has something up his sleeve for his Blues and Brews section at our gig THIS COMING FRIDAY!

Beaming from our living room to yours. Will be our last for a while, so would be especially lovely if you fancy joining us 🎶🥳🎶

I’ve been doing more writing recently, and was very pleased to take part in this excellent community project run by our neighbours. Tidelines celebrates our beautiful Exe Estuary, encouraging understanding of this unique natural environment and engagement with it through the arts and community interaction. My piece features some antique photos of me and Phil, and is up now at www.tidelines.uk/notebook
