Hi there friends and fans!
Thank you so much for dropping in to see what I'm up to.
So, the reason I've invited you here is to ask...could you help me finish my next album?
I've never crowdfunded before so this is a very new and exciting experience for me. In the past I've fully funded my own recordings, but as you'd know it's been a tough few years for artists like myself. After 18 months of being unable to earn my living performing live I'll only be able to cover 50% of the costs, and I'd be very, very grateful if you can help me fund the rest.
I began writing and developing this body of work during our first lock down in March 2020 and this year have been working alongside my long time producer Shane Nicholson, to bring to life my first full Album since 'Heart of Sorrow' in 2014!
The new recording is coming along beautifully and I'm really excited and looking forward to sharing these songs with you. Those of you who have followed my career will know that i never do exactly the same thing twice and this collection of songs is no exception, so...expect the unexpected!
I've named the Album 'Wiser', after a track that reflects the overall feeling of the songs; songs about love, loss, learning and looking towards the future with a better understanding of the past. This album reflects where I'm at and where I'm headed... 'Wiser, braver, stronger from now on'.
Your pledge, whether large or small, will make all the difference to me, together we can make this happen and with your help and support I'll be able to release my new album in May 2022.
It is a magical process seeing my songs come to life, but I need your help to get this baby out into the world.
Thank you!
