Award winning Scottish singer songwriter Dean Owens was gutted when Covid19 put the kybosh on 3 months of live tour dates to promote his awesome new release, The Man From Leith (The Best of Dean Owens) – released on 20 Mar 2020, on Eel Pie Records.

However, with the help of the audio/visual talents of Sandy McGhie at Channel 7A, he will perform a special concert, live and direct to your computer screen. It will be broadcast from the Channel 7a Facebook page. It can also be viewed on any page it’s shared to.

You can watch, from anywhere in the world, in online groups if you want, in the safety of self isolation. You will be able to request your favourite songs, and comment in real time. (You can also watch later, but you won’t be able to put in requests).

All we ask is that you PAY WHAT YOU CAN* (suggested donation: £5 (or equivalent in your own currency)).
You can pay in advance, or pay on the night. Or after!

Times are hard for everyone just now, not least for full time, independent musicians like Dean. We hope you will think this small payment is worth it in exchange for some live music to help make the world feel a bit better again, even if only for an hour.

Dean Owens gigs are always special, with lots of blethers (chat), and stories about the background to the songs as well as great music. Live From Hummingbird Towers will recreate that great vibe, with Dean and his acoustic guitar, harmonica… and likely some speciality whistling!

This is an experiment. If it works, and you like it, we may very well do more. Let us know if this format works for you.

*NOTE: “Pay What You Can” means exactly that – if you really can’t afford anything, then you are still very welcome to “attend”, but please do what you can to spread the word (And of course if you have a spare couple of grand, that’d be very welcome too!!).

These are tough, scary times, and we want to bring people together through an international music event. There’s nothing like a bunch of miserable songs, sung by the inimitable Dean Owens (Scotland’s maestro of misery!) to cheer you up and make you feel better, in the (virtual) company of like minded people!
