Dear Cookies,

The summer appears to be on the way.  There’s a stretch in the evenings.  To celebrate this fact, although to be honest there’s no link at all, we had a little show at the Ruby Sessions on April 1st.  I wasn’t joking.  I’ve just uploaded some photos on MySpace from the show, so do take a peek.  The link is below...

The incredible Dave Redmond joined me on double-bass for the evening, fresh from his trip to Mexico.  We played a set of tunes which will be on the new album... It’s a really great feeling to have performed these songs live.  A shot in the arm.  When you’re surrounded by four walls for months on end, examining every note, lyric, meter and beat, it begins to affect your mental state!  (Is this the right chord? Is this too jazzy? Does this note clash with these shoes? Does this verse meander a bit? Am I losing people here?)  So I now feel rejuvenated, reinvigorated and... to borrow that ridiculous word... emboldened!
Thanks to everyone who came down for the show.  Apologies to those who had to leave  to catch buses and trains before we made it onstage.  To make amends, I have some photos for you in the Ruby Sessions
folder.  Enjoy!

Also, my Japanese record label sent me another clipping from a magazine over there.  Here ’tis in all its glory.


Until next time!
