Tom Robinson Comments on These Hills
These Hills' recent trip to number 4 in the HotDisc British & Irish Top 10 Chart received some lovely comments from the judges, one of which was from Tom Robinson of Kingstown Radio, UK.
“Clive as ever brings us songs with meaning - listening to this brought images of the Mountains of Ireland, Scotland and our own Yorkshire with her Moors and Hills that abound here. Wonderful uplifting song for us from Clive to help us count our blessings.”

Acorns Fundraising Update
Clive's had a busy year so far starting with the sell-out Johnny Cash Roadshow Charity Concert in aid of Acorns Children's Hospice at the Malvern Forum Theatre in January, and followed by two sell-out shows in Hereford and Solihull.
All of these shows have had very generous audiences - thank you - and, now that we have had confirmation from Acorns, we can announce that our current fund raising total is £6,349.41.
Clive and the band continue to raise as much money as possible for their official charity, particularly with the current financial climate, at shows, special events, and from the sale of the Acorns' Song CD.
Clive wrote this song especially for Acorns and all proceeds from the sale of the CD and MP3 downloads will go to Acorns.
The CD, and MP3 downloads, are available to buy from MixdupStore.
There is a Just Giving webpage where you can conveniently, and securely, donate online. Clicking the “DONATE!” button on the widget above will take you straight to that page.
Thank you to everyone who has helped us so far with their generosity for this essential charity.
