I am going to be playing the song that my dad and I wrote together called 'Iv'e been looking', there is a very special version of that song that I am playing tonight and I am doing some surprise collaboration.

It's been a real roller-coaster of emotions and memories just putting this whole thing together and seeing the incredible contribution that all these artists are making; it is just a testament to my dad and the amazing life he lived.
