On a musical level thereโs been some wonderful gigs ๐๐ถ thanks to everyone that supported the Songwriter Sessions at The Wellington in Birmingham, most appreciated, I had some great guests on with me – thanks to Ian Passey Tom Martin from Liverpool we had Marc Vormawah and David Nixon the brilliant Birdbrother featuring Paul Beadle and Philip Stapley to Paul McDonald John Robinson and the King of the Welsh Gypsies Ben Wildsmith and also the wonderful session that featured Jess Silk and Jodie Schofield
I got around as much as possible with gigs at The Barn in Ledbury and returning gigs at the award winning Tower of Song in Cotteridge and the Lamb & Flag in Worcester – two lovely gigs there…and The Artrix Theatre in Bromsgrove with The Official Receivers was a cracker…but the icing on the cake has to be performing at The Troubadour in London as guest to my old mates The Dirty Strangers one of the finest rock n roll bands for the past 30 odd years featuring original members Alan Clayton and Patrick Scott Mulvey …thanks to Paul Clayton for the invite to play that – it was a wonderful gig…looking forward to doing it again in May 2020.
I also released two download singles the first one back in March called Patricia https://garyodea-gojomusic.bandcamp.com/track/patricia and the recent one Time of Your Life https://garyodea-gojomusic.bandcamp.com/tโฆ/time-of-your-life released in Dec – thanks to Rick Lambe and Paul Butler for there work on these with me.

Thanks to Joe at The Lamb & Flag for the gig and the ‘Brolly Brigade’ who turned up to support it, the weather was tipping down but a hardy bunch turned up for this lovely little acoustic based bar gig. Hopefully see you all back here next year ๐ x
Next one up This Sunday 17th Nov @ THE LAMB & FLAG – WORCESTER @ 8pm…free admission. A welcome return to this cracking little pub venue after a storming gig in July 2019. Great appreciative crowd, hope to see plenty of you here again for another great night.
BREAKING NEWS…very pleased to announce that I’ll be doing a solo acoustic support slot to the brilliant Official Receivers Soul Band at the Artrix Theatre in Bromsgrove on Fri 1st Nov. It’s the last tour the band are doing after a 28 year legacy of classic soul nights. Really looking forward to it – if it’s half as good as the last time here (three years ago…wow…where did that time go?!!!) you’ll be in for a cracking night …GIG Details on the live dates page https://www.gojo-music.co.uk/live-dates/

Thanks again – thereโll be the odd occasional ones next year…I would also like to thank Jess Silk Jodie Schofield and Paul Beadle who have not only played sessions but also turned up as punters on other sessions to support the gig.
