Castle Sessions Vol 1.

Michael C Fox is partly known for his portrayal of Andrew Parker in Downton Abbey, but he is also a gifted musician. This weekend I met with a local sound recordist and a producer to film an acoustic set in the Castle pub, ahead of Michael’s final night of touring, to help promote his forthcoming EP. I supplied camera services and some lighting, offering up an FX6 for some handheld shots and sticking the FX3 on an aging Ronin Gimble for some arm achingly long takes of piano and acoustic guitar. Mike was joined by friend and musician Fife Dangerfield of the Guillemots and they shared a a good few tunes and a little bit of conversation ahead of the new EP. It was a real nice way to start the weekend.

There are murmurings of this becoming a semi regular acoustic sesh, so will see what happens.

A few still frames below; I am not editing this one but will post the finished thing when it’s done.
