Ill be winding up the Bread and Water tour at the end of 2011 with a final run to Melbourne [thats 3 this year!!] and a final South Coast show at the Bridge Tavern in Nowra [Sun Dec 18] with the climax on the New Stage at the Gulgong Folk Festival on Fri Jan 6 http://www.gulgongfolkfestival.com.au/program.html
Mightnt sound like much but it was a very big undertaking to get this live side of things up and running and using cubase on stage for the first time with the addition of live drummers/guitarist/rappers/vocalists and dancers…not least of all from my performance side of things but it was very gratifying to have made so many new friends and fans …from the musicians I worked with ..Jon Schofield/Gye Bennetts/Jason Block/Mighty Ash/Sharon Twiss/Collette McGrath/Cameron Sack/Mike Howard…I now have a very creative, talented and supportive bunch of very engaging and dedicated people around me to launch into 2012 with.
I’ll be writing and recording heavily with 2 more recording sessions at Pirate planned [Dec 19-21 and Jan 16-18 plannned and that will wrap up the “In your Face” album which is slated to be mastered with William Bowden late February with a tentative Autumn Equinox release [March 20]. Am already writing as well for 2nd Album for 2012 along with a collaboration with Penny Ikinger and an audio soundscape with Justin Sheedy so theres plenty to keep me busy…watch for “In your face” dates around March 2012…meanwhile heres a pic from Pure Pop Records with Jason Block from Sun Dec 11
