Just got back from a small tour in the UK promoting "All My Mistakes", my latest release on A/G Records  - the compilation album only released in the UK with tracks from "Poetry & Aeroplanes" and "Stay Under The Stars" which were never released in the UK until now. The reception has been very generous - "All My Mistakes" was chosen album of the week in the Independent - as did "The Singer" a few months ago. The Guardian and Word Magazine, NME, The Quietus have all done features.

We started out in London and went all the way up to Glasgow and ended the tour yesterday back south on seaside Brighton. The tour was easy and it was very cool to meet new fans and to play music every night again. I have been so tied up in the studio lately and I had forgotten all about the fun of being on stage and playing guitar.

These days I am in Paris putting the final touches on the record I have been producing for Mercury in France, the new and third record release by my friend Nolwenn Leroy. We have recorded 14 tracks in Sweden this past month and now we are mixing the tracks in a studio Paris, right next to the Arch of Triumph. The music is sounding special. It is mostly for harp, stand-up bass, drums and percussion, strings, organ and brass. Nolwenn has really stepped up to the challenge and she has put in a great performance with all the players as well as writing most of the lyrics in French. She sounds just like how she has matured, her personality just as elegant and warm hearted as she is in reality. It's been a lot of fun.

Jonatha Brooke stopped by to record a couple of her songs that she wrote with Nolwenn. Nico Muhly did some of the string arrangements as well as Vic Emerson and gorgeous Ruth Wall from Goldfrapp played some wonderful harp. I arranged the collection of songs on the Faroe Islands this summer - five of the songs I have written myself over the last two years.

The record has been long in the making and now it has finally come together - Nolwenn is ready to go back onto the stage in France with Mercury Universal on her side, four years since her latest studio album. I think it is so cool that she has made a work of passion that is really strong and personal. 

The first single is coming out this week. We are mixing it right now and the A/R man dropped by the studio yesterday to pick up the single for radio.

It's 1971 all over again."
