October Rose
Hi Ed and Louise ,
Thanks so much for contributing to Land to Hand. I had to pull it together at very short notice, so I was absolutely delighted that you could play -- and then I had the added benefit of meeting you both. I've had some great feedback about your music, and I hope this will strengthen your partnership with the Old Manse. Also, I'll spread the word at the Trustees and hopefully you can get bookings at their properties. And I'd definitely like to have you perform regularly next summer in Music at the Manse.
