My dear friends and followers, my new album ‘A Poet Or A Painter’, is being released today and is available to purchase here.
This album has been a long labour of love in the making, and I am thrilled to share with you all the 12 brand new songs which form this record. The album was produced by Johnnie Smillie in Film City Studios and features a stellar cast of accompanying musicians including:
Sam Irvine – saxophone
Robbie Greig – fiddle
Bob Miller – double bass
Kyle Greive – drums, percussion
Emily Barr – backing vocals
In addition yours truly also performs all lead vocals, acoustic guitars, slide guitar, classical guitar and piano.
The album is released as a CD only for now, complete with an 8-page lyrics booklet in a lavish 6-panel sleeve, and all copies purchased from the website shop will be signed, and with a personalised message of your choosing as you wish, please just detail this at checkout.
And for the digital music collectors, each CD purchase comes with a link after purchase to download a zip file of the digital files if you so wish.
This is without doubt a landmark album for me and I hope that all of you reading this will enjoy it immensely. I am going to be touring the album across Europe and Canada throughout the summer and autumn and am so excited to be presenting the new album and songs.
Lastly, the YouTube video for the lead single Hold On (My Sweet Angel) can be viewed here which showcases the wonder and beauty of the Italian Alps, a beautiful job from the talented Cristal Tonetto. If you haven’t already, please subscribe to the channel.
Thanks in advance to all those who made the album possible.
