Can’t Believe It’s Been Two Years: Damian Lewis’ First Ever Gig at Omeara London

I feel extremely privileged to have been a part of Damian’s fantastic first ever gig in London exactly two years ago. Then I was very lucky to attend  many other magical music gigs with Damian and his brilliant band but it is very special to know that I was there at the very beginning of this thrilling musical adventure. So, please join me at Omeara London, a truly beautiful and  intimate music hall, today to revisit every single detail I remember from that utterly exciting evening.
