Greetings!

Meet Mama Tokus - an entertaining and edifying, funky and funny singer, hostess and poetess who writes and sings nu soul, blues and R&B tunes (old, proper Ray Charles-style R&B, that is), nu-music-hall ditties and humorous (but always groovy) tunes – memorable originals and interpretations.

What the people say:

“Like Dr John in a three-way with Shirley Bassey and Eartha Kitt”

Bestival antics and the soothing power of the ocean...

A wave of nausea flows over me when I see that my big mate has made it into the Guardian ahead of me, on account of his maritime Bestival fancy dress.

Why? The original little beggar conceived and executed the finest costume there at this wicked festy on my old manor the Isle of Wight.

He chose to make and wear a full 'wave' costume (we pair struggled down from Plymouth with it taking up two train seats).

Now the Guardian's Arts Blog has referenced his smiling azure face.

Meanwhile, my face is just green. I'm just a washed up old hackette, obviously...
