Oozing self confidence and owning the stage, the flamboyantly attired 32-year old Aaron Lee Tasjan thrilled at London’s Omeara. “Hi London. I’m Aaron Lee Tasjan. I hope I’m pronouncing that right”. Dry humour abounds in Tasjan’s world. Quirky, catchy songs were delivered with style and panache from this […]

With C2C Festival just around the corner and various other shows in London. With so many country fans arriving in waterloo station or nearby, the question on where to stay is always being asked. I recently stayed at Travelodge-Waterloo which is about a five minute walk (max) from […]
