Happy Valentine’s Day – The playlist

Valentine’s Day doesn’t need to be just for couples in love. I think of it as an opportunity to tell people I love that I DO love them and appreciate them for being in my life and loving me. This includes neighbours, people in my community, people I work with, my friends and family. It’s such a small world and we need to take care of each other. One of my favourite things I learnt from a YouTube video was how small things can make someone day. In this particular video, a girl bought 12 roses and handed them out to strangers on her way home to people of all ages and backgrounds. I did it and my favourite comment was “I feel like I’ve just been knighted”. Everyone loved it and felt special – so did I.
Simple, thoughtful, with love. Happy Valentines Day.
New Music! Exclusive! My chat with singer-songwriter Rhys Lewis

31-year old raising star Rhys Lewis has already caught the attention of the public with his songs of heartbreak, many of which having featured on some of the biggest shows on television. But it is his love of performing live, curiosity of his craft, command of his instruments and impressive vocal ability that has taken him around the world, racking up legions of loyal fans along the way.
Brand new single, Alone, signifies a major life shift for the Oxfordshire-born artist. After years living in the capital city, Rhys made the decision to step away from city life. On a little plot of land in the countryside he found comfort in simple loneliness. In contrast to its title, Alone is an optimistic song. This perfectly crafted pop gem sets mesmeric strings against Rhys’ soaring vocals, as he dreams of escape.
With a phenomenal 620 million lifetime streams to date, the BBC Introducing favourite has seen 200 million streams for standout single, No Right To Love You, the very song that caught the attention of Decca Records. Heading into his biggest summer yet, Rhys has just taken his new music around Europe, but yet he has found time to chat to me about his music.

Storytelling and music for 0-4s: explore and learn at the Royal Albert Hall

Being a mum in London, I’ve found I’m on a constant search for events, and spoilt for choice most days, with activities happening in local libraries, churches and children’s centres. But as a new mum with a rapidly growing son, I find we’re both up for something a bit different, and I love finding those regular events that take something interactive and leave us both feeling we’ve achieved something before our day has even started! That’s why I’m delighted to be involved in the Royal Albert Hall’s new Storytelling and Music sessions for 0-4 year olds.
