    Hi Vivien, I was being interviewed on Terry Ferdinand's folk show on Monday (Bishop FM) and he played your beautiful song 'The lights go out'. I was stunned, what a wonderful track! Just had to tell you. Hope you get south of the border as i'd love to catch you live sometime. All the very best to you.
