Incoming

I’m currently working on an album with Mancunian singer-songwriter Markus Greenwood. Early signs are that it’s going to be a lot of fun.

I’m also about to start recording some new Rickenbacker-driven songs with old friends The New Pills.

The Travelling Band’s new album is nearly done and sounding heavy. I recorded the basic tracks with my mobile recording rig in two beautiful locations – a converted chapel on the Scottish island of Mull, and a lovely old house in the Buckinghamshire countryside. These were brought back to Manchester for much overdubbing and tweaking – a process not lost on the music. Think rolling pastoral serenity meets edgy urban brutalism. With a banjo.
