Only a week to go until Stamford Record Fair, in England's fine stone town (not just Georgian splendour, you understand, but medieval interest, Victorian villas, examples of late 19th and early 20th century Arts and Crafts architecture; anyway...). Have a day out, enjoy all of the above, stay for a bite to eat or a coffee and cake in the numerous eateries and, of course, buy some music on vinyl and CD at the fab little Record Fair!

The Matthews Baartmans Conspiracy at Kirton In
Lindsey Town Hall on Friday 11 February, 2022 |
Always active and never one to dwell on past successes Iain, who now lives in Holland, reformed Matthews Southern Comfort in 2005. They played to a sold out audience at Town Hall Live in 2018. BJ Baartmans is the lead guitarist in the band and first met Iain in 2003 and have been playing together ever since. BJ is up there with the best in the world. During lockdown the pair teamed up with each other to write and arrange an album 'Distant Chatter' that was produced by BJ and released last summer. It is a collection of rootsy Americana songs with an adventurous, colourful and gritty side to it, with ear catching hook lines and intriguing harmonies and stellar guitar. Tickets for this concert are priced at
£14.50 and can be obtained from Londis (Kirton), from Brian on 01652 649230

Hannah Sanders & Ben Savage New Album Ink of the Rosy Morning Out on 1st April 2022
of the Rosy Morning which is scheduled for release on 1 April 2022Following the success of Before the Sun (2016) and Awake (2018), both produced by David Travers-Smith in Toronto, the duo opted for an altogether different approach for their new record.
They
hired a quiet old schoolhouse by the sea, sat in the dining room, lit the fire,
opened a bottle of wine, set up a few mics and played. Nothing pre-arranged. No
big ideas. No pre-production. No thought of releasing anything from it. Nobody
else around. Simply playing the songs they’ve known for years; savouring all
the energy and emotion they carry.
Since
emerging in 2016, Hannah & Ben have been defying all conventions of style,
genre and compartmentalisation. A touch of ‘Americana’, yet quintessentially
English. Traditional, yet contemporary, with their individual writing style.
Playful and instinctive, they make music with such panache and natural
chemistry it makes perfect sense.
Their intimate, pin-drop single microphone live show has captivated audiences across the UK, US, Canada & Asia, sharing the stage with the likes of Sarah Jarosz, Martin Simpson, Seth Lakeman and Gretchen Peters.

Fender Announce the Classic Vibe Squire Starcaster
Fender Announce the Classic Vibe Squire Starcaster
The Starcaster broke the mold of semi-hollow guitar design with its offset body shape when it was introduced in the ‘70s, offering versatile sounds and out-of-this-world styling for the most adventurous players. The Classic Vibe Starcaster is a throwback to the original Fender model, creating massive tone courtesy of its dual Fender-Designed Wide Range humbucking pickups. Player-friendly features include a slim, comfortable “C”-shaped neck profile with an easy-playing 9.5”-radius fingerboard and narrow-tall frets, as well as a stop tailpiece for solid tuning stability. This Squier model also sports a unique painted headstock contour, 1970s-inspired headstock markings, rich-looking nickel-plated hardware and a slick vintage-tint gloss neck finish for an old-school vibe.
