Album Update

It's been a long time since I first started work on this new album, and it feels like I've been saying it'll be out soon forever, but... it'll be out soon! The bulk of the recording's done now, and I'm taking a couple of weeks off from it before I start mixing and adding one or two more overdubs, so it looks like the possibility of a single around December and the full album coming out at the start of 2010. Dates to be confirmed. I'm really looking forward to getting out and playing some live dates again, with all the time spent on recording I've only played two times this winter, so I'm feeling well and truly ready to see some familiar faces out in the audience again. See you soon Andrew
