Angel on a milk crate…
The angel she was a singing,
and her guitar with tunes was ringing,
about love both forged and sundered,
with these tales so small and great,
please sing to me my angel on a milkcrate..

Some time around 2005 I went to the Womad festival when it was still in Reading. There were many fine acts there but the one I really remember was Jessica Goyder. She was dressed as an angel standing on a milk crate by the portaloos singing to the queues of people to raise money for Water Aid. It was one of those moments in lfe that stays with you and I felt compelled to go home and paint. Check her beautiful music out at www.jessgoyder.com
