What a wonderful evening we had at Rough Trade East for the launch of ‘Don’t You Leave Me Here’ (Little, Brown) last week.

Thanks to all who came!
Despite the impression given by the inclusion of the large image of Wilko Johnson on promotional banners and other publicity for this year’s Village Green Festival, we feel it prudent to point out in case of fans being misled that Wilko is NOT actually appearing at the festival. (The picture was taken at Village Green several years ago.)
We are assured all promotional materials featuring his image are being retracted in order to avoid any further confusion.
