Hi Everyone,

I hope this finds you well? I just thought I would post a new blog to keep everyone updated.

I am having a wonderful time here as “Artist in Residence” at One & Only Reethi Rah and it really has been a great run of gigs and performances.

The crowds in the Rah bar have been fantastic and I have enjoyed meeting some great guests who have really got behind what I do. I have even managed to come up with a fun version of “Kalinka” which is a classic Russian folk song. Maybe next time we see each other I will play it and some of you will be able to do some traditional Russian dancing? No? OK then just me….

Some big news is that I have been asked to extend my contract here and subject to a work permit I will be staying on until November 2012. I will do another update soon but in the meantime enjoy a few of these snaps and be good and be good at it!

Ian
