The artist (and our wonderful neighbour) Anne Marie Culhane made this brilliant radio show, The Sea In Me, celebrating our relationship with the oceans and our connections with them through art and science. I was very pleased to be interviewed as part of it and am thoroughly enjoying listening back, it’s an inspiring show, have a listen…

Lovely interview here with Miranda Sykes where she gives some insights into her experiences this past year, plus some background on our project together - a recommended read!

Wonderful to relive this magic moment from a few years ago, when @phillip.henry joined @showofhandsmusic for their Royal Albert Hall show. It was an amazing night. Tune in to watch a stream of the full performance via @showofhandsmusic on March 21st ❤️❤️❤️

Our last normal gig was one year ago today - we had a fantastic time exploring the Isle of Man thanks to @johniom 🎶🎻🎶

Quite different this year - Rosa Kit has given us the best possible Mother’s Day gift: SLEEP! Sending love to everyone who isn’t able to see their mum today, XXX

Our daughter decided to make her appearance on Monday, on International Women’s Day! She’s called Rosa Kathleen HenryMartin (Rosa Kit for short), in honour of our mothers - Hannah’s great-grandmother Rosa and Phil’s much missed auntie Kit. (Also in honour of great Rosas like Parks and Luxemburg!) She is wonderful ❤️ We’re over the moon. Not planning on putting lots of pics of her on social media, because we think she’ll thank us later - but she’s really looking forward to meeting you all in person very soon we hope! Xx

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

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… 😂

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 😁🎶🎸
