The morning after the last show I played. A sunny March morning in San Diego.

“As important as it is, live music’s national and regional contribution isn’t purely cultural. Our economic impact is also significant, with live music adding £4.5bn to the British economy and supporting 210,000 jobs across the country in 2019. The promoters, festival organisers, and other employers want to be self-sufficient, as they were before lockdown. But, until these businesses can operate again, which is likely to be 2021 at the earliest, government support will be crucial to prevent mass insolvencies, and the end of this great world-leading industry.”

I’ll be supporting the @footballbeyondborders 2020 Challenge. Over the next 4 weeks I’ll run, cycle and walk a total of 500km and raise or donate a £1 for every KM I do. FBB work with a range of young people who love football, but face barriers to their learning and this money will go towards funding virtual tuition for the young people that they support. You can donate and track my progress via the JustGiving page, I’ll be connecting Strava so you can really watch the struggle 😂 Link in story

Head to @mireillecharper for some reading 📖 Don’t stay silent. Everyone, but ESPECIALLY those like myself. Who enjoy and have made a living from playing black music which derives from the injustices of black American people. You can’t dance to the good stuff and turn your head at the bad.

No ibiza this Summer, but what a reunion it’s going to be when it’s back. Had some great shows lined up this year, looking forward to returning to the island when it’s safe ♥️

The love and passion that all the @defectedrecords

The love and passion that all the @defectedrecords crew & @simondunmore1 put into the club nights, label and radio shows is something to admire. Congrats to the gang for creating 3, out of the top 4 music podcasts on @itunes . You can listen to the latest with myself hosting now, link in story 📢

New podcast up! 🌐This week I speak to @locodiceofc . I found this chat extremely interesting and very inspiring! We talked through his long music career. From touring with Snoop Dogg in the 90s as a rapper and his transition to electronic music later in his career. We spoke about his love for Muay Thai boxing, why he's been practicing it for the majority of his life, how it effects his music career in a positive way and his deep respect for the sport and its culture. A big thank you goes out to him for being my guest, super cool guy, it was a really enjoyable one! Find the Spotify link in my bio or on my story ✌🏼

Wanted to thank everyone who has listened to the new record 'I'm Free To Love You' . We just hit over 1/4 million streams on Spotify. I hope it has given some of you something to dance too in your homes these past few weeks. Final shout out to the label for all their hard work. Head to my story to listen.
