While my wife and kids are away, I thought I would cheer myself up and take the opportunity to play guitar around the house at night! I don’t often get to do that quite so freely as the kids are asleep. I had fun playing the little Brook Bovey in the bathroom, where the acoustics are great.

Last week, I played out at an open mic and messed up a favourite tune of mine pretty badly, Black Water Side. For some reason this tune continues to elude me when under the spotlight, so I decided to try recording a video. I find that recording something simulates to some extent the pressure of playing out. And since I was playing the Bovey, I thought I’d do it on that. It has an incredible sound for such a small guitar!

Enjoy!
