September…and a resounding conformation of all things Scottish, Welsh, Irish and English. Thankfully, we can continue to enjoy the unique diversity of the beautiful British Isles. So we thought it would be appropriate to feature the music of Scottish Clarsach player and folk singer Katie Targett Adams to celebrate.

In other news, re-recording and editing of vocals tracks in North London to perfect Charlotte Parmiter’s new album.

String quintet and guitar additions and overdubs to David Clifton’s sacred songs recordings at Fifth Avenue with Will Reagan co-producing. Vocal overdubs with Scott Minor at Wild Chorus studios for his folk/roots project. Ambient guitar and violin recordings underway too, we hear.

Gabriel is travelling and making more of that big old trombone music, so please be patient if you have e-mailed the office and not yet had a yet. We’ll be in touch with you soon.

Plans to upload sheet music for our most popular recordings are taking shape, and we are sorting out the best formats with payment options. Won’t be long.

Happy Autumn and Fall to you all, as we enjoy watch those kaleidoscope colours paint the trees again.

…and hope that you are too! Don’t forget your bucket and spade…and sun-tan lotion.

The 4th of July. The Brits in America are lying low….! A happy fourth of July to all our American friends!  It is a busy month.  Jon Kelly is mixing Charlotte Parmiter’s album at his new mixing suite in North London; Katie Targett Adams is playing in Barcelona and France whilst on her European travels; David Clifton has begun recording two projects; sacred songs at Fifth Avenue with the able assistance of Will Reagan, and folk/acoustic songs with Scott Minor at his vintage recording studio, using vintage tape machines & recording equipment.

Welcome to June and the prospect of a long hot summer! It is nearly Firefly season in Knoxville Tennessee, and almost time for cream teas in Devon and Cornwall on the way to those sandy beaches in England.

Little Room is proud to announce that Cathay Pacific Airlines are featuring Katie Targett Adams again on their in-flight entertainment; as you fly around the world you can listen to her EP ‘A World Of Music’.

And if you are not flying around the world you can download her beautiful music here at Little Room on her artist page, or from iTunes and all good digital music stores.

In other news this month, David Clifton is playing Scruffy City Hall, Knoxville on the 10th of June, and The Square Room on July 3rd. The concert on July 3rd will be a very special evening: Four At Cafe Four, with David Clifton, Joey English, Matt Honkonen and Rob Kronen, all playing their special  songs and then getting together for a great surprise end to the show. Please spread the word!

Here we are at the midpoint between the seasons of Spring and Summer. All the traditional festivals have been taking place around England, and indeed across Europe and the wider world; May-Pole dancing, Morris dancing, celebrating the May Queen, Jack-In-The-Green, and most notably the choristers of Magdalen College choir singing the Hymnus Eucharisticus from the top of the Great Tower. This tradition dates back to the 17th Century, when a Fellow of the college composed a special piece for May morning.

Many of these traditions found their way over to America with the first settlers, and the crowning of the May Queen and May-Pole dancing events, along with May-baskets filled with candy or flowers given as gifts for children still take place across the United States. Have a great 1st of May celebration!
