Dave is currently in Scotland doing his 2012 Highland swing.

On Monday, 27 August, at 8:00 p.m., Dave will be doing a live interactive online pay-per-view gig. For information and tickets please go to: http://www.stageit.com/dave_sharp_from_the_medicine_maisonette/the_alarm_founder_member_up_close/13128

The gig lasts 30 minutes. Pay what you can for tickets. Join Dave for this unique opportunity to be backstage at a live gig!

Happy New Year from all of us here at DaveSharp.org with very best wishes for a great year ahead in 2012.

We’d like to say a huge thanks to everyone who came out to support Dave’s shows throughout the past year up and down the UK….it was a very busy schedule with album recording between dates.

We’d like to take this opportunity to welcome all you new supporters who’ve been checking in with us here at the site… Dave is certainly looking forward to seeing you all out on the road in 2012.

The new year is shaping up to be very busy indeed with a relentless run of live dates kicking off this January which will take in the South East, South Wales, the North West and once again an extensive run of shows in Scotland.

For those of you planning to be in or around the Manchester area at the end of January we’d like to remind you of a special show at The Angel in Manchester city centre on Thurs 26th January. This show will be promoted by Manchester’s newest music/art collective “City-Folk.” Dave will perform a full solo acoustic set and will be joined on the bill by some of Manchester’s finest poets and musicians. There will be food laid on and there’s no cover….

“City-Folk” is a collective which sets out to promote music/art which prefers to operate outside the umbrella of the Corporate mainstream and is planning events at multiple venues around Manchester…Definitely something to watch for in 2012…..

Dave’s new album is finaly nearing completion and a tentative release schedule is likely to be announced sometime around March….

Once again we’d like to thank both new supporters and old for continuing to follow Dave’s journey and we hope to see you all out on the road in 2012…

Travel easy and be safe.
Happy New Year

Best wihes for a wonderful 2012 to one and all!

(Announcement will follow soon.)

Dave sets off today for a 10-day swing of gigs beginning in Devon and making his way back up to Chester.

Tonight he's looking forward to playing again at the Chill Bar in Ilfracombe.

Dave will then head to the Crown Hotel in Lynton for three days of "Dave Sharp's Lynton Chill."

On his way back North, Dave will be performing at the Hooga Barhouse in Chelsmford where he's very much looking forward to joining "Sloe Gin" onstage for the final set of the evening.

Dave's final stop on this swing will be The Letters Inn at Tattenhall.

Dave is very much up for all of these gigs. He hopes you'll join him and sends a big hello to all.

Travel easy.

With Dave's new album in its final weeks of completion, we're very proud to announce an exclusive electric band show at the recently re-opened legendary Eric's Club in Liverpool.

Eric's Club, at the forefront of the British Punk scene, has recently been re-launched and re-opened. As part of the re-launch festivities, Dave is honoured and proud to have been asked to perform a special show with a full electric band (see dates list for ticket prices and details). Coming at a time when Dave's new album is well on the way to being completed, he will be taking this wonderful opportunity to preview album material with a band featuring musicians who've worked on the album recordings.

This is a MUST-SEE SHOW! It is highly adviseable to pre-book tickets which are available on all of the usual ticket outlets (Ticketmaster, etc) and from the venue itself. DO NOT MISS THIS SHOW!

In early November Dave travels to Chelmsford to play a Hooga show which takes place at The Barhouse. Dave has been invited to play Hooga by Chelmsford's own "Sloe Gin" who will also be performing on the bill. "Sloe Gin" will open the show and then join Dave onstage later in the evening to perform a selection of Dave's songs. More on this later.

It has been a busy Summer for Dave working on the new album between repeated tours of Scotland, England and Wales. The Album Sneak-Peek Show at Eric's Club certainly looks to be an excellent way to round out the Summer.

Dave passes his thanks to everyone who was able to get out to all the shows this Summer, and we look forward to seeing you all at Eric's Club.

Travel Easy.

Dave is currently in South Wales playing Ledbury and Oakdale. Tonight's show at Oakdale Rugby Club should prove to be a special one. He'll be performing with his good friends 4th Street Traffic who are themselves currently on tour in the South Wales area. 4th Street Traffic will be playing an unplugged set ahead of Dave's performance and will later be joining Dave onstage.

4th Street singer Ali and guitarist Rhyl joined Dave onstage at the Rock and Fountain last week.

This will round off Dave's current South Wales leg before he returns to Ayrshire later in the month.

Stay tuned for more news.

Dave will be be broadcasting live on Leith FM (http://www.leithfm.co.uk/listen/) at lunch time today, 14 August, with presenter Ralph MacGillivray. Dave will be discussing his career and performing between 2:00 and 4:00 this afternoon.

Tonight Dave will be performing at Whistlebinkies in Edinburgh at 10:00 p.m. This will be the final performance of the Scottish Highlands Tour.

Dave wants to send mega thanks to all of those who travelled far and wide for the performances of the Scottish Highlands Tour.

"Keep the faith and travel easy."

Dave sets off to the Highlands mid-July for a run of dates to coincide with the Belladrum Festival near Inverness.

The dates are in association with the Tartan Fringe which has its own stage on the Belladrum Festival site. Many fine artists are set to appear at venues and events in and around Inverness.

Whilst there Dave will appear on Moray Firth Radio for a session devoted to Dave's career on the Marion Scott show, date and time to follow.

During the Highlands tour Dave's been invited to appear at a special concert at The Dunnet Head Lighthouse, a stunning venue at the most northerly part of the UK.

Dave is looking forward to scheduling band activities in and around the North West in August, September, October. Stay tuned to preview album material. Be sure to check in regularly for details following this Summer's Highlands tour.

Look forward to seeing everyone on the road.

Folks planning to attend the Jolly Brewer Show on Saturday, 2 April, PLEASE NOTE: This show is definitely happening.

Dave is currently readying up for another trip to the Highlands including his first appearance at brand new Glasgow alternative venue Pivo Pivo. Should be a great show. News is travelling fast about a great vibe there. Dave will also put in a return appearance at Dirty Martinis in Kilmarnoch following his January appearance.

For those in the North West, Dave will be appearing at the Octagon Theatre in Bolton which looks set to be an excellent show.

Once again, for the avoidance of any doubt, the Jolly Brewer show is on. See you there!

On Dave's recent South Wales expedition, Dave was very pleased to share the bill once again with the Christians' very own Henry Priestman, resolute troubadour and superb song-smith, for a stunning show at The Ebbw-Vale Institute. During the trip, Dave took time out to record a broadcast for BRFM TV which will find its way onto the Media Page over the coming weeks.

Dave would like to psss on heartfelt thanks to all of the promoters and venues on the tour for supporting the new wave of corporate-free music. Blessings to you all and keep the faith!

Dave also found time for a re-visit to the legendary Katie Fitzgeralds in Stourbridge.

Dave is currently planning a return trip to the Scottish Highlands over the coming months which will include some Glasgow dates. Stay tuned.

Travel easy and see you on the road.
