Yes I know it's been a year since I've written anything, but I've been very busy! I'm so proud to announce that my new album 'Out Of My Hands' is finally finished. It will be available at shows from November, via itunes and Amazon from late November, and hopefully some selected retailers not too far down the track. This really has been a labour of love and has honestly been recorded quite a few times over the past few years.
The final album was recorded in a few days in July, August, and September 2008. It features myself playing acoustic guitar in a trio format with Peter Gray on electric bass and Nic Cecire on drums. These guys are both incredible musicians who I've looked up to for nearly as long as I've been playing. They brought their magic to each track. There's also a solo song, and a duet with the composer extrordinaire Chris Harley playing piano. The final song is a little ditty I wrote on Ukulele (plus I play a few other instruments on it) and was very fortunate to have aquired a Cole Clark Ukelady to track it on.
The feel of the album is very raw and gritty, with plenty of honesty (mistakes)! I really do believe it will appeal to a range of music lovers and not just guitar heads - they just pick all my mistakes anyway.
I'm really looking forward to taking this out on the road over the next few months - primarily solo to begin with and then hopefully with a trio a bit down the track.
Thankyou so much for your support and am excited to hear your feedback!
