Last year I arrived in Berlin with no money, a new album and a pink guitar.
.
Since then I haven’t stopped playing; back to London, then to Bali.
.
I returned on different terms, but still with my guitar on my back. It’s been a good reminder of how far I’ve come, and how much music I’ve made since.
.
The gig was at Madame Claude’s, a David Lynch inspired venue where the furniture was stuck to the ceiling.
.
I played late after a very ‘Berlin’ outfit which involved heavy synth, aggressive guitar, occasional screaming, out of tune ukulele solos and excellent use of a shaker.
.
Holding a room of strangers in a foreign city is such a thrill, and an example of the power of music.
.
Afterwards, many bought CD’s; I was ‘interviewed’ by some excited musicians from Sweden; and some of the audience saw me on the street later and hugged me with congratulations in French.
.
On Saturday I borrowed fellow SA musician and legend @bummelakiezi’s amp, who I had busked with last time.
.
I played all the favourite spots, from the East Side Gallery to Hackesher Markt, to Admiralbrucke.
.
Despite being stopped by the polizei earlier in the day I played on and my final busk was one to remember:
.
A bridge with the sun setting behind me and about fifty people in front; hanging out and drinking German beer - a natural audience.
.
An audience that respects buskers as musicians, and listens closely.
.
You can tell this because the intensity of the music increases, each note has more weight.
.
Playing on that bridge was perfect, the music came from the surroundings, and I was hearing it for the first time.
.
It’s moments like those that I’m looking for.
.
On the street, in the studio or in a venue.
.
The more I play, the more they happen, and I’m incredibly grateful.
