Another artist I was able to speak to before he performed at Standon Calling was Tom Grennan. It was a great chance to hear how much he enjoys playing festivals- with the immediate feedback from the crowd and how he is able to let himself go and allow his words and music to flow back out to them. A cycle of energy I’ve touched on before in some previous conversations.
He noticed the contrast between playing at festivals and his earlier gigs and how he is so grateful for his journey and opportunities to be there. A wonderful example of staying present and enjoying moment to moment.
