This new album (release april 2022) has been recorded with all the bells & whistles I could muster. Many of the songs have been developed during my cream of tartar show but some are nearly 20 years old. There is a strong nod to the music of beatles & the band with layered harmonies & choruses more catchy than covid. Also laced in are tingly guitars & mandolins with a hint of cat stevens & the epic quality of pink floyd & 80's synth music.

The album was created between london & leeds being produced by my long time friend barkley Mckay. The album will be relaeased digitally but a small batch of cds will be available via this website
