🌞 Howdy from Cornwall!! This year we’re gigging loads down in the south west at local venues, and songwriting / recording! We’ve been a little slow to share here on socials, can we be honest and say life just gets a bit hectic sometimes! Juggling is hard and we’ve had some pretty big things going on in the background (all will be revealed at a later date!!)

For now, we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone continuing to listen to our music and come to see us at gigs. 🎟️ We’re beavering away in the background and we will have new music for you later in the year.

We love you guys 🫶🏻 can’t wait to share some updates with you sooooon!!!

🙏🏻

Our next Sanctuary Session is just two weeks away - and we're excited to welcome Our Atlantic Roots to Watchet 🥳🎶

Our Atlantic Roots is Mac and Laura, a creative Cornwall-based transatlantic duo who fuse together poetic lyrics and music that draws on country and folk roots - with tight vocal harmonies, honest storytelling and impressive guitar work.

Tickets £10. Please book online at https://www.zeffy.com/en-GB/ticketing/sanctuary-sessions-our-atlantic-roots

We're thrilled to have them with us for a night - and we'd love you to be there, too!

This weekend is a special Prayer Weekend for us as a church family, starting tonight after the Community Meal and running through until Sunday morning, when we gather outdoors for worship and a picnic at the Memorial Ground.

We'll be taking it in turns to pray through the weekend. If there's something or someone you'd like us to pray for drop us a message at [email protected] 🙏

We're taking inspiration from the trees we see around us - thinking about the importance of roots, leaves, fruit and seeds as we pray and worship together this weekend 🌳
