I’m delighted to announce that my new album, “People Watching”, will go on sale early in December. It will be available as a CD as well as via digital download. The songs were mostly written in the past ten years although one goes as far back as 1973 (“Surely he can’t be that old”I hear you cry).
The recording and mixing was done in August and October this year by Chris Pepper at Saltwell Studio near Huntingdon. Boo Hewerdine produced the album and added a wonderful assortment of instruments, with Chris adding drums and percussion. Donal Whelan carried out the mastering at Hafod Mastering in the Vale of Glamorgan. I am so grateful to Boo, Chris and Donal for sharing their skills with me to produce a result I am hugely proud of.
You will be able to purchase “People Watching” very soon on this site.
