News - February 10th online show

Helo gyfeillion,

Happy New Year friends & here's to another beautiful musical chapter together in 2023. The start of the year has had it's challenges for me & I've been so grateful to my bandmates & family for their support & love. We want to extend the same affection to each & every one of you & say that we're always here, through music or messages to take care of each other.

I've spent the last few weeks being quiet, being outdoors, hugging my loved one & moving closer to myself & the peace that comes with more acceptance.

I hope you can forgive that I've gotten a little behind with things & because of that there's a couple of changes to our schedule in February. The show on the 10th will be part 1 of 2 mini shows that we'll put together to create the full length. The first part will publish straight to Backstage at 7pm UK on February 10th & then we'll air the complete show on February 26th @7pm UK. Thank you for your understanding.

In case you missed it, our cover of Willy DeVille's Assassin of Love is Backstage under WATCH & LISTEN now. We really loved covering this one ❤️ Here's the link for you to download https://www.thejoyformidable.com/pages/backstage-songs/

R&R&M

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

​A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

​Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

​The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.

​Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
