Once again I've reached that time of year where the desire for reflection and internal stock-taking starts to take hold. At the same time I'm surrounded by the silliness of christmas, a packed social calender and then the craziness of preparing for Woodford, Illawarra and Tamworth festivals which makes proper reflection seem impossible. Solution? I blocked out a week in January, ensured that my bass will be in another state at the time so it would be impossible to play gigs, and then gave a good friend access to my gmail calendar to scrawl messages preventing me from working during that week. A whole glorious week to ready myself for 2010 and to reveal some new musical strategies. That will also be the week where I'll be unveiling the new Liz Frencham mailing list and also the first song in my monthly YOUtube cover series. Fun :)
In more general news, January will means some gigs with Fred Smith & some more work on Jigzag album number 5- lots to look forward to!
But for now, have a really smiley Christmas and all the best to you 'til our paths cross again.

I'm up to my elbows in the toolkit at the moment and loving it. And you can hand me a 12" spanner if you want by giving me any feedback you can about what kinds of things you'd like from this site and from my live shows, and anything really.
I'm at a crossroads at the moment with so many ideas jostling for position. In addition I love my new peaceful country life which means a keen desire for less months on the road and more spent in the garden and in the music room. So I'm looking for ways to send out music via the net, but still to maintain an intimacy and sense of connection.
This is starting with creating platforms and linking them together. It will however take time for the content to appear, and in this I ask your patience. Watch this space...

It's been a rejuvenating winter and I've thought things through, written songs and have got some radical moves planned for the next phase of my art.
This weekend I'm off to Gundagai with my old friends Greg & Caroline from Jigzag. We're in the final stages of pre-production for album number 5 so these next few gigs are your last chance to have your say about what we record. Sadly I ran out of time to update their dates in my own gig calendar but I'll try and get it done over the weekend. Meanwhile check out all the details at www.jigzag.com .
In the wider scheme of things, You and Me Vol.2 unfolds slowly, like most worth waiting for things, and I've started a new trio inspired by the work of bands like Nickel Creek and Union Station. It features Robbie Long and the wonderful dobro playing of Pete Fidler, and we call ourselves Jimmy the Fish!
I hope you get hooked like me!...
