YOUR QUESTION

05/09/2020 Jo

Any idea yet when you might finish the singer songwriter record you have been talking about for a while? Is it in a similar vein to MadLove? For me, "Left with Nothing", which you sang on, was a particular highlight of that album, all of which I love. On the subject of singer songwriters: first, is there anyone you are particularly influenced by, or particularly like or would recommend? Second, any opinion on Iron & Wine or Bon Iver?

MY ANSWER

Hi Jo. I’m not really sure when I’ll finish. I chip away at it when I can. Hopefully by next year. It is somewhat similar to MadLove in terms of harmony and song structure. “Left With Nothing” was my first attempt at recording lead vocals and I really enjoyed it. That was essentially the catalyst to do the “singer/songwriter” album. Willie Nelson, Elliot Smith, Judee Sill & Fiona Apple come to mind as influencers. Second, no opinion yet!
