Hi Tom,
The harp player is me, Andrew Wimhurst. Thanks for the compliment!
As I said, this was a live-to-air with no (!) foldback (and no real=20
audience except the jocks). The band's sound is much better in a live=20
setting.
We are down under, so no, we don't get to NY much (but would love to=20
one day). Les Tarr is playing our CD in California on his radio show=20
and has said that we ought to do a US tour (see below).
Cheers and thanks for listening to the tracks!
Andrew
