If you're interested my amazing bandleader, sitarist (and bassist / composer) Sheema Mukherjee, is on Late Junction tonight doing a 20 minute improvised piece with Martin Green from Lau on accordion. 11pm.

It will be on iPlayer if you miss it.

Cheers

Should be good, I've seen Sheema several times with The Imagined Village.

PS I've sat in sessions with Martin but he's so dam good that I've listened rather than played!

Superb! We'll be playing Sheema's solo work in July, but we won't get near Hull I don't think :(

I had to improvise guitar on My Son John with Martin and Sheema a couple of years ago, it was a little scary but I think he enjoyed it. Lovely guy, amazing musician. His daughter's hilarious :D

When the dates are confirmed please send me a link, I may be in Hull but that doesn't mean I can't travel :)

Listening to it now Nige, beautiful. Very jealous of your Carthy involvement. Martin is one of my few heroes.

Paul
