Hunker Hill

This is a vlog about the James Scott Skinner tune Hunker Hill. I thought finding out about it would be straightforward but I couldn’t find anything! So here is a video about me finding out nothing and playing a beautiful tune! If you enjoy these vlogs please support my Patreon www.patreon.com/simonthoumire

We are making an album!

Myself and David McGuinness made an album last Monday! This is a video of me and my slippers going to the studio. If you enjoy these vlogs please support my Patreon www.patreon.com/simonthoumire

Room 24 – Simon Thoumire and Ian Carr

This is a brand new tune from Ian Carr (on geetar) written whilst on forced vacation in Scotland in December 2021! Can you tell if we are in the same place? I really like our reactions throughout the piece!

The New Year’s Gift

This is my New Year’s Vlog! Join me for a trip around Bearsden and a version of the James Hill hornipe – The New Year’s Gift! If you enjoy these vlogs please support my Patreon http://www.patreon.com/simonthoumire
