Nicholas Stevenson – Comet Video and Record Store Day Celebrations!
Take a little time to view this wonderful video for the Nicholas Stevenson song ‘Comet’. It was directed by Freddie Lloyd, who also happens to be the man behind Ursine Vulpine.
In other news this coming Saturday will see the arrival of international Record Store Day. The idea behind it is to celebrate the culture of the independent stores that have served us all so well over the years, and will do so for some time to come. In view of this Nicholas Stevenson will be minstreling his way around the South West for a series of in-store performances so try and make it down if you can.
He’ll be stopping by at the following shops:
