My summer touring ended on Saturday 24th July with a visit to the beautiful town of Berwick-Upon-Tweed. The wonderful Maltings Theatre was host to my last Whisperer gig for a few weeks. A big thank you to all the folks who turned out - not just to this gig but to all the shows over the last few months.

There will be a Whisperer gig at the Madhurst Festival in Sussex on August 26th and then touring resumes for real in September to coincide with the release of my very first DVD which includes a live show, a documentary and interview.

But for now - enjoy the summer. I'm off for a swim with the children...

After hugely enjoyable, recent visits to Taunton, Dartmouth and Darlington Richard is preparing for his last run of summer gigs. There are several in Sussex, one in Barnsley, one right up in Berwick and then a performance at the first ever Madhurst Festival.  All details are over on the left. (photo by Dawn Jee May 2010)

The Guitar Whisperer Show returns in June for a string of summer dates (see left).

Richard is also putting the finishing touches to a new DVD filmed by Phil Grabsky for Seventh Arts Productions. The live footage, from a Guitar Whisperer performance at a packed Minerva Theatre in Chichester last winter, will be complimented by a fascinating, highly original RD documentary and a comprehensive interview.

Watch this space...
