Robb Johnson (Official)

It was such quality weekend - firstly, chuffed & then some to be part of Visions of Bob Dylan at Farnham Maltings (such a wonderful collection of musicians) - then a very early start to get down to Tolpuddle Martyrs Festival …it was maybe the most inspirational Tolpuddle since 2015. I was honoured to play a song for the Palestinian Ambassador. & the music on the main stage was brilliant too.
But anyway - I forgot to post that the new album Pennypot Lane was finally availabley from all good record stores last Friday, July 19th (which was the 45th anniversary of the Nicaraguan revolution too).

The latest fab RNR is with us. Thank you for a very lovely review of Pennypot Lane too - “a magisterial revisiting”

Well summer's here and so is the new edition of RNR!

On the cover of this month's edition we have Canadian folk trio Wild Rivers, while inside we hear from Fairport Convention, Canned Heat, The Men They Couldn't Hang, Richard Thompson - RT, Elaine Palmer, Ferocious Dog, Solstice, Bryn Haworth, Lemoncello, Leyla McCalla, China Forbes, Ranagri, Jason Wilson Music, The Commoners, Lizz Wright, Raghu Dixit, Brave Rival, The Ciderhouse Rebellion and more....

I think I have just finished writing Justice At The Grange the final part of the Murder at the Grange trilogy.
Which is just as well, as I am supposed to be talking about Murder at the Grange at Towersey Festival on the saturday lunchtime, and doing some songs later too.
