Hi All I had the video shoot for the first single last week. Filmed it in Hoxton, East London. Very near where i recorded This Is Hope in the Strongroom Studios – that place will always feel a bit like home. Actually did some of The Water there too. The sun came out. Anyway, the […]

Hi All This is an SOS out to all of you who have ever fancied being in a music video – I'd love to have some of you up there on screen with me for new single Be My Saviour. Grab a hairbrush/broom handle or your Gran/child/pet and do your stuff. Mime the track off […]

In my last blog I said I’d let you know about one of the best days I’ve ever had. It happened two weeks ago. And In my blog In October last year I mentioned October's Book Of The Month: 'MORE TIME FOR POLITICS' – Dairies 2001-2007 by Tony Benn, in which I was stunned to […]

Dear All Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and a great ’08. And I look forward to seeing some of you out there. I’m in America for the ‘holidays’ and have just walked down a familiar stretch of highway which has spawned a few of my songs over the past few years (The Final Arrears […]

Hi All Been working away all week in Glasgow rehearsing a new live set up. Cant believe it , feels better than ever! Really been great week. All the songs on the new album are now ready to go live and have a power about them. Somehow the essence of each of the songs is […]

I know it’s taken a bit of time – but it’s here ! My new album will be out end of Jan 2008. Lot’s more news to come on that. I also spent yesterday revisiting my ideas and inspirations behind the songs, and writing them down, sometimes it’s good to have a re-call. I’m so […]

I went to see the new film ‘Control’ by Anton Corbijn on the life of Ian Curtis of Joy Division the other night. I thought it was great. I’d recommend it. It reminded me of the film ‘Pollock’ about Jackson Pollock starring Ed Harris that was out a couple of years ago. They both really […]
