Bundles are £15 from the B&S online shop.
Here’s a chance for you Londoners to catch Stevie’s one man show this Thursday evening at the Lexington, London where he will be playing a support slot to Scottish singer songwriter Rachel Sermanni.
Doors are 7.30pm and Stevie will be onstage just after 8pm. Ticket info for Thursday’s gig can be found here:
Stevie is heading to the USA at the start of April for 3 shows – 2 as part of Chickfactor’s “For The Love of Pop” 20th Anniversary celebrations and the other at the First Unitarian Church in Philadelphia.
The first show is in DC at the Ballroom, Artisphere, Arlignton on the 6th April and also features him alongside Frankie Rose, Honey Bunch and Dot Dash. Tickets can be purchased for either the night on its own or as a pass for both the DC Chickfactor shows.
The second show is in the side chapel of the First Unitarian Church on 7th April. It has an amazing history and has been home to some great shows in recent years too.
Tickets are on sale now from Ticketfly
The final show (for now) is in New York on the 12th April and features me, Honey Bunch, The Softies, The Pines and special guests. It is at the Bell House in Brooklyn and tickets are already on sale.
It’s less than 4 weeks until our second Late Night Tales compilation hits the shops. We know of at least three shops who are stocking it and if you head along there on the following dates you’ll hear Chris playing some tunes in store and he’ll have his Sharpie at the ready for a bit of signing too!

Chris will be joining the Late Night Tales residents and some mysterious guest DJs to play some records at the Late Night Tales B&S launch party on 1st April. This free event is being held at the Big Chill Bar, Dray Walk (off Brick Lane), London, E1 6QL and should be in full swing from mid afternoon until midnight. Hopefully some of you will make it along on the day.

We were delighted to be asked to compile a second compilation for the Late Night Tales series.
Released on 26th March this installment includes songs chosen by Chris, Stuart, Bob, Mick and Sarah. The music ranges from the 60s pop of the Lovin’ Spoonful and the Wonder Who? to the melancholy minimalism of our good friends Remember Remember, with a selection of groovy jazz, female folk, prog-rock breakbeats and dubbed-out post-punk along the way.
Of course there is also the obligatory cover version by the compilers: a swinging version of the Primitive’s jangle pop classic “Crash”.
Take a listen to a preview below – we hope you like!
