Thanks very much to Dave Monks of BBC Radio Merseyside for having us on his show, it was great to play a live session on air. Thanks also to Tim Dyer for playing superb keys and giving new impressions of older songs, especially the Philip Glass style of piano in “Freaks” which gave it a really different feel. It was a enjoyable weekend back in Liverpool.

“I Disappear” is now in the very capable hands of Rick Scott whose other productions of graystar tracks have been at the forefront of the band’s drive into national and regional radio. It’s a song all about dynamics, of Glass-style piano arpeggios that have found their way into a variety of contemporary alternative and indie artists, including David Bowie, Brian Eno and Bjork. I walked around with it in my head for 3 months, but I’m sure it will be quite different from how it sounded internally, as songs always do.

We are also working towards some quality gigs in late Spring, perhaps starting off with the IPO and Soundcity Festivals in Liverpool in May. We hope also to release an EP of 3 songs in late March, all going well. Check back for updates.

Thanks for reading!
