#Introduction
Hello people! I'm new here & having a look around. At the moment I'm looking for interesting people to follow, so I can get a sense of the place. I'm a musician (https://www.heringman.com/); other chief interests are books (fave authors Le Guin, George Eliot, Dickens...), environmentalism, photography, nature/walking, utopian thinking. My work formerly took me all over the globe, but since 2011 I've chosen to play only in places I can get to by train. Home is lovely North Yorkshire.
@jacobheringman Hey! I’m currently studying classical double bass and I’m very curious how people manage to make a living from playing music. What kinds of gigs do you play as a lutenist? Do you have something to fall back on?
@joelhed You asked about gigs. I do a few solo recitals, a lot of song accompanying and other small ensemble work, performing both here in the UK and abroad.
