We are just a few weeks away from 2023 and its going to be a big year for music releases. I have two full albums planned and a series of singles.
First up will be ‘Year of the Bat Cat” which is the debut album for Code E1 the remix project with the superb Black Star Liner. We recorded 34 tracks during covid and have selected the best ten for the album. We are currently figuring artwork and video promotions for this project. I’m super pleased with this material and it’s a real departure from previous music, much more beats based. Its already attracting some attention with a great quote from founder member of James, Jim Glennie
“Wonderfully innovative and explorative. Packed full of strong melodies and ideas. Exciting and unpredictable.”

4th live Music for The Head & Head Showcase May 20th 2023
May 20th will see the 4th Music for the Head & Heart/Green Eyed Records showcase, with Martin Simpson headlining. This follows the 2022 sell out showcase headlined by Jon Gomm. Martin Simpson is a brilliant artist and tickets are already on sale here .
All the other showcases to date have sold out, so we advise booking early. Support will be from my acoustic ensemble The Small Change Diaries with special guest Laurent Zeller and Towse. I’m being selective about live appearances and exploring so we play to listening audiences where the venues have great acoustics.
The 2nd Heartache album released September 2023
We are 70% through the second Heartache album. This also features Towse on some tracks with great contributions from artists across the globe including Michael Ross from Nashville. The album also includes previous Heartache singles including “Can’t Stop” and “Slow Time” Special thanks to Howard Taylor for arrangements and playing as well as Agi for terrific backing vocals. We will be in the studio for the first half of the year mixing and mastering material.
