I was invited back to play with Jools Holland’s band in their collaboration with Rod Stewart recently. Lots of fun!

We had a few gigs at the Pryzm in Kingston plus a feature on BBC Radio 2’s Piano Room. It was quite bizarre because I arrived at Maida Vale studios for the filming just after the band elbow had finished their filming, so bumping into them was quite funny!

BBC Radio 2 Piano Room was presented by Vernon Kay, who I was interviewed by just a week prior, on his Radio 2 show, because they had a segment called ‘Vernon’s Vaults’ where they dig into the BBC archive. They had just played a clip from 1978 of my parents who were on TV with their pet iguanas who had just laid 36 eggs! So when I went and told Vernon who I was, he said he HAD to get a photo taken together. What a funny old day!
