Hey y'all,
Please forgive the lack of updates over the Christmas period. Far from sitting around eating and drinking too much (although there was inevitably some level of festive self-indulgence...) I have been in the studio again, working on and recording some new material.
Basically, I'm going to be putting out a new album in the next few weeks - I'd hope to have it out by the start of February. The working title is 'Portrait of the Young Man as an Artist' (kudos if you get the reference) and it will contain brand new songs, along with 6 off the original release.
The songs that were on the original CD have been totally reworked, and in some instances have had parts re-recorded or added completely. Any problems with playback should be totally addressed now!
The CD will be available for free download off of my website, though there will be an option to make a donation if you like the music. This system allows you to download and review the album, and pay for it retrospectively if you approve - obviously there is no obligation to pay but any contributions are much appreciated! 50% of all money donated goes to 'a LIFE for a CURE', which works in association with Meningitis UK and is seeking to raise £1 million towards the development of a vaccination against meningitis B.
In other news, the video for the album's first single, 'The Not-So-Great Gatsby' goes live on Youtube on Tuesday evening, plus it will be available for download off of my in-the-process-of-being-revamped website, so check it out when the day comes!
All the best,
Owen
