h Natural double DVD
1st December 2016
FRIENDS, ROMANS.
I have been somewhat badgered lately by folk asking when there will be some new h Natural show downloads available?
Well, good news, and much better than that!
I am proud to announce a double DVD!
DVD 1 is the movie of the (now-legendary, so they tell me) solo concert and "one-night-only" collaboration with Italian band Ranestrane ("Strange Frog") in Rome on September 12, 2015. As you will see and hear, their musicianship and sensitivity for my music was breathtaking. It was an extraordinary night and I'm so happy we managed to capture it.
Along with DVD 1 is a bonus DVD of my Christmas show in the Museum of History, Stockholm, last year. A Gothic and moody affair, but not without moments of the bizarre - not least when the chap ambled up and put his fingers in my hair as I sang "This is the 21st Century".
Two very different evenings but each with their own atmospheres in two of the world's most precious cities.
Available to order from 12th December
Love and aquaducts,

Might make a handy, but lumpy stocking filler... or the perfect holiday read! See you in Sweden on Saturday 26th?...
h at IB Expo
30th October 2016
Hello Folks
Two years ago I had the pleasure of playing a show in Sweden called "The IB Expo" with Richard Barbieri and chamber-rock ensemble Isildurs Bane. It was a chance for Richard and I to perform our music with IB's band, strings, brass, and percussion. We performed "Red Kite" and "Naked", as I recall. I also sang the wonderful IB song "Eyes" which I would recommend you check out.
I was hoping to be asked at some point to return and repeat the experience and, this year, IB not only requested my return but invited me to collaborate in the writing of their forthcoming album "Off the Radar". In doing so, I wrote the lyrics and sang the lead vocals for what turned out to be most of the album. The album will be split into two movements. i "Off the Radar" and ii "Colours Not Found in Nature". The latter contains 5 separate songs within it. I will travel to Sweden to perform this with the band/orchestra in Halmstad on November 26 (the night before Marillion's show in Aylesbury). This will be the first time this music will see the light of day (or the dark of night) as the album will not be mixed until December for a release early next year. It will be available through Racket Records.
"Would be lovely to see you in Halmstad if you're passing..."

h Natural Copenhagen. Saturday 24 September 2016
Ishøj Kultur Cafe, Ishøj, Denmark
Hello Naturalists. The Copenhagen Ishøj Kultur Cafe have agreed to open an area normally reserved for guests of the venue. This has freed-up a last few tickets. Beyond this the show will be sold out. Hope to see you there!

Hallo Naturalister. Ishøj Kultur Cafe har været så venlige at åbne et område af cafeen, som normalt er reserveret for gæster, da koncerten ellers er udsolgt. Dette betyder, at der nu er yderlige ganske få billetter sat til salg. Så skynd dig, hvis du vil sikre dig en billet!
Håber vi ses.

Hello Naturalaires!
I am happy to announce a freak h Natural happening in Copenhagen, Denmark on September 24 this year. Copenhagen's lovely (if you haven't been) and I'm not bad either (if you overlook my dodgy piano-playing and ageing body), so it could be a very nice weekend all round.
See you there as well as everywhere else with Marillion?..

Hello naturalizers,
Well, I've done a fair few h natural shows now and, despite pre-show terrors, have enjoyed every single one. High points: Oslo crowd singing the "answer" vocal spontaneously during my ham-fisted attempt at Aha's "Take on Me", fabulous crowd vibes in Bonn, a great aftershow signing session in Utrecht, that bloke who put his hands in my hair throughout "This is the 21st Century" in Stockholm, the fans in the "cage" at St John's Church, Oxford, the first 'free tequila' evening ever in church in Liverpool and, just when I thought I'd finished, a bonus gig at the 100 Club, London where - strangely - I entered the zone and stayed there longer than I ever have. It was good to start with "Heroes" and end with "Life on Mars" for db. A zillion thanks to all who showed up to throw something into my Cage. I'm no longer starving - physically or spiritually. I'm swollen with, and by, your faith. That's me floating over your house right now.. :o]
h Gig at the legendary 100 Club
9th January 2016
Hello all you Naturists!
Huge thanks to everyone who came to my Christmas shows in Oslo, Bonn, Utrecht, Stockholm, Liverpool and Oxford. They were perhaps the most successful h Natural gigs to date - all 7 selling out. The vibe was throughly maintained and new traditions were born. Tequila!
I have received a number of comments lamenting the absence of a London show. I simply couldn't find the time to play London whilst maintaining my main priority (writing the next Marillion album) in the studio with the boys during the week.
HOWEVER.. I have been offered an evening at the legendary 100 Club, 100 Oxford St, London.
...so I am proud and excited to announce:
SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO AFTER CHRISTMAS on Sunday January 31st.
Don't bring a bauble, bring a shot-glass ...and we'll let the New Year in, fashionably late.
